No, a rainforest is not arid; in fact, it is characterized by high levels of rainfall, typically receiving over 70 inches (1,800 mm) annually. This abundant moisture supports a diverse range of plant and animal life. Arid regions, on the other hand, experience very low precipitation and are often dry and desert-like.
