First Location
My first Jungle that I visited was The Amazon Rain Forest. The Amazon Rain Forest is located in South America, in the county of Brazil. The Capital of Brazil is Brasilia. There are a lot of country's that border Brazil such as: French Guiana, Suriname, Guyana, Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Paraguay, Argentina and Uruguay. The Atlantic and Pacific Ocean border South America. The GPS coordinates are 2˚39'58.57"5 60"00'16.30". The climate here is is very hot, humid and wet. The temperature gets no higher than 93˚F and gets no lower than 65˚F and we get about more than 100 inches of rain here. The humidity here is about 77 to 88%. Where I am looks like nothing but trees and different tropical plants. My location was one of the first rain forests formed 15 million years ago.My location is important because it covers 40% of South America and is the largest rain forest in the world. Also the The Amazon River runs through the Amazon rain forest and is the 2nd largest river in the world.
