What is Jungle?
[[File:Jungle.jpg|thumb|A jungle in the [[Sierra Madre del Sur]] [[mountain range]] in [[Central America]]]] The '''jungle''' is a place in a [[rainforest]] where the forest floor is covered with plants. Like other [[rain]]y places, they have many [[river]]s or [[stream]]s. [[Scientist]]s think that more types of [[animal]]s and [[plant]]s live in the jungles than everywhere else. When people talk about jungles, they sometimes mean the whole [[rainforest]]. The crowding in a jungle leaves little room to walk. This may make it dangerous to people. However, it also has benefits. The many plants and animals can provide food for [[foraging]]. The [[Amazon rainforest]] is thick and dark jungle in many places in nine countries. However, most of this forest is in [[Brazil]], [[South America]]. Some snakes in the Amazon are very dangerous. The jungle is home to a variety of venomous and large constrictor snakes that can pose a threat to humans and other animals. In the Amazon jungle, snakes have plenty of food options due to the rich and diverse environment. Some large Snakes like the Green Anaconda eat animals such as rodents, monkeys, and even larger mammals like deer. They also feed on birds, their eggs, frogs, fish, lizards and some other small snakes.[https://snakesworld.info/snakes-diet-and-food/]<ref>{{Cite web|last=curie|first=Marie|date=2024-08-22|title=What Do Snakes Eat?
