The Mighty Jungle. The Mighty Jungle, #10

The jungle is a densely overgrown forest with little light or air reaching the ground. These environments are home to an array of exotic animals and plants. Additionally, the jungle is a popular setting for adventure stories and movies. However, these stories often present the jungle as a dark and forbidding place where danger lurks at every turn. Here, we will examine the jungle's natural environment and its importance to our planet's life-supporting processes.
We will also discuss how exploring the jungle teaches us valuable lessons about life. The jungle is one of the world's most extensive natural habitats- covering around 7.3 percent of the world's land surface area. It is also known as a tropical wet forest and consists mainly of trees, bushes, and climbing plants such as lianas. The dense canopy above keeps out much of the sun's light and heat, creating a cool and damp environment.
Undergrowth thrives in this moist environment, creating a treacherous environment to traverse without proper equipment. Explorers must wear long pants, gloves, boots and helmets to protect them from sharp vines and thorns.
