The Amazon Rainforest is located in southern Colombia. It stretches from the Atlantic Ocean in the east to the tree line of the Andes in the west. The Amazon Rainforest is hot and humid, with temperature averaging 25ºC-30ºC (77ºF-86ºF) and humidity averaging 77%-88%. It is a large tropical rainforest occupying the drainage basin of the Amazon River and is the biggest rainforest in the world in terms of size and diversity and has a variety of wildlife living in it. Major wildlife includes jaguar, manatee, tapir, red deer, capybara and many other types of rodents, and several types of monkeys. There are also several million species of insects, plants, birds, and other forms of life, many still unrecorded by science. The large variety of vegetation includes an array of trees and plants such as rubber trees, orchids, monkey brush vines, and bromeliads. The forest widens from a 320km (200mi) front along the Atlantic to 1,900 km (1,200 mi) wide at the Andean foothills. In total it covers an area of 6,000,000 square km (2,300,000 square mi). Only ten percent of the Amazon rainforest territory belongs to Colombia, but it represents approximately thirty-five percent of the country's total area. Overall, the Amazon Rainforest is an important part of Colombia’s geography.
