than 2 percent of Earth’s surface, rainforests house more than 50 percent of the plants and animals on Earth.
Here are some examples of the richness of rainforests:

Rainforests have 170,000 of the world’s 250,000 known plant species.

the United States has 81 species of frogs, while Madagascar, which is smaller than Texas, may have 500 species.

An area of rainforest the size of two football fields (one hectare) may have more than 400 species of trees, while an equal area of forest in the United States may have fewer than 20.

Europe has 570 butterfly species, while Manu National Park, a single reserve in Peru, has 1,300 species.
