I lived and worked 12 years in Ecuador. The head waters of the Amazon . The rain forest there is doing fine. The forest will take back the roads very quickly. There are some natives that try to farm , but there farms are so small . The main threatened thing is man. Every thing down there will kill.

The Amazon Rainforest (Portuguese: Floresta Amazônica or Amazônia; Spanish: Selva Amazónica or AmazonÃa) is a moist broadleaf forest in the Amazon Basin of South America. The area, also known as Amazonia or the Amazon Basin encompasses seven million kilometers (1.2 billion acres), though the forest itself occupies some 5.5 million kilometers, located within eight nations: Brazil (with 60 percent of the rainforest), Colombia, Peru, Venezuela, Ecuador, Bolivia, Guyana, Suriname, and French Guiana. States or departments in four nations bear the name Amazonas after the Amazon.
The Amazon represents over half of the planet's remaining rainforests and comprises the largest and most species-rich tract of tropical rainforest in the world

The biggest rainforest is the Amazon rainforest in South America.
The second biggest rainforest is in Central Africa. The island of Madagascar is home to many unique plants and animals not found anywhere else.
There are also large rainforests in India, Bangladesh, Burma, and Southeast Asia.
