A thriving Amazon matters to the people who live there, to the countries it encompasses, and to the entire world.

The Amazon contains the single largest tropical rainforest on the planet. Covering about 40% of the South American continent, it spans more than 1.6 billion acres across nine countries. Stretching east from the foothills of the Andes Mountains, the upland glaciers, streams, and wetlands feed the Amazon Rivers that wind all the way to the Atlantic Ocean, creating the world’s largest river basin. The Amazon’s forests and waters make it the most important terrestrial biome on the planet.

The Ka’apor people: defending the Amazon rainforest

For centuries, the Ka’apor have guarded the Amazon’s deepest secrets and protected their ancestral territory. Now they’re defending it with their own education system, their own defense strategy, and an unshakeable determination to protect what powerful forces seek to destroy.

Tropical Fish

Many tropical schooling fish depend on the submerged roots of Amazonian trees for shelter, protection from predators, and spawning. More than 2,500 freshwater fish species rely on these flooded forests. Worldwide, over 1,500 saltwater fish species depend on mangrove forests, using their roots as nurseries, feeding grounds, and safe refuges.
