The+Rain+Forest

 Welcome to my wikispaces page. On this page you will learn about the destruction of earth's many great forests. Rain fo rests play a big role in human society, along with animals and native peoples that live there.

Interesting facts about our disappearing forests are listed below: 3. One of the main ways to sweep away the rainforest is the slash and burn technique. This technique is preformed to use the land for agriculture with the rich soil, industry relocation, and the wood of the giant trees is great for many kinds of uses.
 * 1) We lose about 1-1.5 acres of Rainforest per second. (1 Acre=About one Football field.)
 * 2) Earth loses at least 7,500 species per year and 19,000 sq. of rainforest land miles per year.

The Animals of the rainforests are endangered because their homes are being destroyed for farms, businesses, and other human needs. Apparently the businesses didn't see they had neighboors before they moved on in. These animals are losing their homes every minute of the day. Earth loses more than 7,500 species per year. These include the Cuscus, Flying Lemur, Gorilla, Loris, Mandrill, Okapi, Orangutan, Parrot, Sloth, Tapir, Tairseir, Titi, Toucan. Even though many of these animals are unknown to many people, there are still many more unknown species that dwell in the forests.

Not only the animals of the misty forests are endangered, but so are the plants that make the forests so amazing. surprisingly the trees in these forests grow about 300ft. The trunks can range in size as well. The trees in the rainforests are important to society itself even though it barley consists of people. The trees can produce material helping humans as much as a stick of gum to deathly disease cures. Currently, many global scientists are trying to look for the cure for cancer in the many rainforests and tropical areas. Throughout the years it has become even more difficult to find the medicine due to the disappearing forests. Luckily we still have many big, not large, forests. The largest rainforest is in Brazil and it covers up the Amazon river and Basin. Other big forests are listed below.
