Forget about that wrong idea that the Amazon Forest is Tarzan's home or that there are milions of naked indians walking through it...Nowadays almost all of the aboriginals of Amazon Forest wears shorts Adidas, speak portuguese and are used to many others white man'stuff. Of course still there are some but nothing compared with the time before the civilized man comes into the jungle and bring diseases and the dammed money.So we have to give thanks to the clever but stupid "modern Homo sapiens", who destroyed all the aboriginal's culture and soon all the forest.(I'm luck to be a dolphin and not one of those people...)

    Well just for you to have an idea of it, I'm gonna show you some amazon's numbers...
    4,9 millions of km2= the total area of the Amazon Forest
  3,3 millions of km2 = the part of Amazon Forest that is in the brazilian territory
  500 millions of km2 = the part of Amazon Forest that was already destroyed (is equivalent of two areas of São Paulo) WOW!
  6,7 thousand km = the extension of Amazon river, the bigest river from the world
  28 seconds = the time that Amazon river spends to send 6 billions liters of water in the sea, enough to supply one liter to each unhabitant of Earth
  700 = the number of islands of Barcelos (the bigest archipelago of fresh water in the world)
    3 meters = the size that Pirarucu can get, the bigest fresh water's fish from the world
 

    The Amazon forest is the bigest tropical forest in the world and a unique territory because of the amazing quantity and variety of species of plants, animals and insects. Its size is equivalent as 14 Germanys and 20 Englands!!!
    The temperature in the summer can get 42 celsius!!! In Manaus, next to Amazon can be 50 celsius!!! It rains all the year long...that's why some people call it Rain Forest...heheh...what an amazing discovery huh?
    The quantity of species is unsurpassable, but there are few specimen of each specie...in simple words: the danger of extinction is constant...not only from animals but plants and insects are in dangerous too...

    When the Solimões River and the Negro River get together a very interesting fact hapens; their water don't get together...that's because of the different compositions of them...
