Habitat factsheets
Animals and plants live in a wide range of habitats, and develop features to suit those environments. We need to conserve these habitats and the species that rely on them.
Use these links for a description of the habitat:

- Mountains e.g. South American Andes, and Virungas, Rwanda.
- Tropical rainforest e.g. Congo Basin, C.Africa.
- Tropical grassland (plains) e.g. Masai Mara, E.Africa
- Temperate rainforest e.g. Olympic Peninsular, N.America
- Temperate grassland (Prairies)
