A rainforest is unique because of its diversity in flora and fauna. Rainforests cover 6% of the world. However 50% of flora and fauna species are found in rainforests.

Rainforests lie in the "tropics." They also receive at least 80 inches of rain per year. Scientists believe that about half of the plants and animals found on earth's land surface live in the rainforests.
