In the Amazon Rainforest, there's an amazing variety of plants and animals! People believe there are about 40,000 kinds of plants, 3,000 kinds of fish, 1,300 types of birds, and 430 different mammals. And guess what? There are also a whopping 2.5 million kinds of insects living there. Many of these animals and insects live up high in the treetops of the rainforest, in what we call the "canopy." It's like a big, wild, and colorful jungle up there!

In the Amazon Rainforest, most animals are nice, but some can be dangerous. If you meet the big jaguar or the sharp-toothed piranhas in the water, it could be very risky. There are also snakes with venom and frogs that are poisonous, so you need to be careful.
