| Did you know that tropical rainforests have
been around for at least 50 million years! Yet within the next 50
years, we may well
eliminate their existence through activities such as logging, cattle
ranching, and over-population. Also, it is estimated that there are
more than 2 million species that no one has yet identified! Maybe
YOU can go discover a new species. But be sure to take your climbing
shoes.
It's said that up to 40% of the earth's species live in the treetops
of the tropical rainforest. On this field trip, you will learn about
rainforests, why they are important, what makes a rainforest a rainforest,
where on earth they are, and some things you can do to help save
the rainforests. Click the arrow in the bottom right-hand corner
