Question

give an account of the wildlife of the Amazon basin

Answer 1

Mammals..
Jaguar (Panthera onca)
Tapir (Tapirus terrestris)
Giant otter (Pteronura brasiliensis)
etc..
Trees..
Tropical rainforests set records in biodiversity: anywhere between 40 to 100 species of tree can be found in a 1-hectare plot of land. Take the Cocha Cashu Biological Station in the Amazon floodplain forests of Peru, as an example. There, at least 1,856 species of higher plants have been discovered2.

The Amazon is home to as many as 80,000 plant species from which more than 40,000 species play a critical role in regulating the global climate and sustaining the local water cycle.3But the richness of species is one thing, and abundance another. While there may be many species in tropical rainforests, these often exist in low numbers over large areas.
