Features: Mediterranean Forests
Large forests are distributed along the hot Mediterranean coast, where the climate is hot and dry in summer and mild in winter. Additionally, we can also see such forests in other parts of the world, such as California in the United States or Australia. In Mediterranean forests, vines intertwine, full of vitality, with various species growing together and thriving.
Tropical and Equatorial Forests
The world's most dense forests are distributed in Central and South America near the equator, as well as in Africa and Asia. These tropical forests are humid and hot, always lush, and home to 50% to 90% of the world's plant and animal species. Here, some enormous trees can grow as high as 50 meters, taller than a 10-story building. Thick vines wrap around these giant trees, and various insects and birds also make their homes there, with some species still unknown to scientists.
