The wildlife of Brazil comprises all naturally occurring animals, plants, and fungi in Brazil, which is the most biodiverse country in the world. Home to 60% of the Amazon rainforest, which accounts for approximately one-tenth of all species in the world, Brazil has the greatest biodiversity of any country on the planet. It has the most known species of plants (60,000), freshwater fish (3,000), amphibians (1,188), snakes (430), insects (90,000) and mammals (775). Brazil is also the country with the most native species of edible fruits (over 300). It also ranks third on the list of countries with the most bird species (1,971) and the third with the most reptile species (848). The number of fungal species is unknown (+3,300 species). Approximately two-thirds of all species worldwide are found in tropical areas, often coinciding with developing countries such as Brazil. Brazil is second only to Indonesia as the country with the most endemic species.
