Brazilians are very serious about protecting the natural environment. Protected areas are zones of animate and inanimate nature, which need protection from pollution and extinction. For example, this is the Campos de Manicoré in the state of Amazonas stretching for about 152 thousand hectares. In Rio de Janeiro, there is the Jaceruba Environmental Protection Area. Until recently, here it was allowed to hunt and catch wild animals for sale as exotic pets, and restaurants served their meat. In 2002, this was brought to an end, and today the zone is under strict government control. The Ilha Comprida Environmental Protection Area preserves sand dunes, dense forests, more than 70 kilometers of clean beaches and mangroves. It is home to terrestrial and marine South-Atlantic animals, more than 30 species of migratory birds arrive here every year.
Brazil is also rich in beautiful national parks. Protecting animals and plants, these zones also serve for recreation, tourism and scientific purposes. Itatiaia National Park is the first place of this kind in Brazil. It was founded in 1937. It's a must for all not indifferent to wildlife: this is a tropical forest, a lake, a lot of sparkling waterfalls, comfortable walking paths. Here you can see monkeys jumping on branches and exotic birds. Professional guides are employed to lead tours in the park.

The Jericoacoara National Park in Jijoca de Jericoacoara beckons with a clean lake sparkling between dunes. Here is one of the Brazilian attractions - Pedra Furada or "Pierced Rock".
