The jungle is a woodland in a tropical place. In jungles, it rains a lot. Scientists think that more types of animals and plants live in the jungles than everywhere else. Jungles are hot most of the time (having high temperature). When many people talk about jungles, they may also mean rainforests.
Jungle usually refers to a dense forest in a hot climate, such as a tropical rainforest. The word jungle originates from the Sanskrit word jangala which refers to uncultivated land,[1] among other meanings. The term jungle is prevalent in many languages of the Indian subcontinent and particularly Urdu and Hindi. It is generally used to refer a dense tropical forest or a swamp with an abundance of animal and plant life. About 6% of the Earth’s land mass consists of the ecosystems that could qualify as jungle under the common usage of the word. About 57% of all species live in jungle environments.[2] In common usage, forests of northern Thailand or southern Guangdong in China would qualify, but scientifically, these are “monsoon forests” or “tropical deciduous forests” but not “rain forests”.
