亞馬遜雨林（Amazon Rainforest），又稱亞馬遜河雨林，位於南美洲亞馬遜盆地的熱帶雨林，佔地700萬平方公里(7億公頃)，使這片雨林生機盎然的為亞馬遜河。雨林橫越了8個國家：巴西（佔森林60%面積）、哥倫比亞、秘魯、委內瑞拉、厄瓜多、玻利維亞、蓋亞那及蘇利南，包括法屬蓋亞那。其中4個國家將雨林所屬州份取名亞馬遜州（Amazonas）。亞馬遜雨林佔世界雨林面積的一半，森林面積的20%，是全球最大及物種最多的熱帶雨林。9 l* d% A: C Y2 b6 b2 B: \

This Amazon jungle, or the Amazon basin in South America, covers over 1.7 billion acres acres (7,000,000 square kilometers); the actual tropical rainforest is spread over 1.4 billion acres and 9 countries: Brazil, Peru, Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Bolivia, Guyana, Suriname and French Guiana. 60% of the Amazon jungle is contained within Brazil. The Amazon represents over half the remaining rainforests worldwide and contains the largest and most species-rich tropical forest system on our planet. Amazonia grew around the Amazon River which is the longest river, the largest river, and the basin has the largest area in the world. The Amazon River has total flow greater than the top ten world’s rivers combined. The biodiversity of this wet tropical forest could boggle the brain; one in ten animal species lives here and it is the largest collection of living plants on the globe . . . and much of the Amazon is still unexplored. It definitely should be protected for the tropical jungle paradise may hold the keys, yet to be discovered, to cure countless diseases.
