The Daintree Rainforest in Australia provides one of the best examples of tropical environment in the world. It is part of a region in Tropical North Queensland called the "Wet Tropics."

When it's not raining, usually the sun is out in full force highlighting the vibrant colours of the rainforest and the sea.
Some of the things that live in this ecosystem are animals like birds and lizards and also many different kinds of plants and trees.
Some animals that live here are Cassowarys, Brush turkey, White lipped tree frog, and Saltwater crocodiles.
Some plants that live here are Blue Quandongs, Burrawang Palm, Wild Ginger, and the Wait-a-while vines.
