Car Rental in Campo Grande

Nature of Brazil is unique and incredibly diverse, which is not surprising given its vast territory containing 60% of the Amazon rainforest. Some species of animals and plants inhabiting the territory of Brazil are endemic, which means that they can only be found in this country. These are animals like funny tapirs that look like pigs with long noses, the maned wolf with golden fur, and plants like Hancornia Speciosa, Gomphrena Globosa, etc.

Like many other countries of the world, Brazil has its own nature reserves designed for the protection of the environment as well as local flora and fauna. One of these reserves, Wildlife Sanctuary, is located in the southern city of Curitiba. The non-profit sanctuary established in 2003 works for the preservation of nature, its biodiversity, and endangered species, and the rational use of natural resources. Here, more than a thousand species, including endangered animals, are under the constant care of not indifferent nature lovers.

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.
