The Amazon Rainforest basin is about the size of Australia and is spread across several countries in South America, although the majority of it resides in Brazil. The main life source of the basin is the Amazon River, originating in the Andes.In terms of diversity of species, the Amazon River consists of more fish species than the entire Atlantic Ocean and in terms of size; the river is 200 to 300 miles across at its entrance into the Atlantic Ocean.

The Amazon forest contains the largest single reserve of biological organisms in the world.No one really knows how many species there are in the Amazon forest, but scientists estimate that there are between 800.000 and 5 million species living there, amounting to 15 to 30 percent of all the species in the entire world.

The forest still keeps many of its secrets. To this day major tributaries of the Amazon River are unexplored.Of the estimated 15,000 species of Amazon creatures, thousand of birds and fish and hundreds of mammals have not been classified, and after each foray into the jungle botanists still manage to bring back dozen of unclassified plants.

The Central Amazon Conservation Complex was included in the World Heritage List in 2000.
