Due to Palau’s location in the Oceania zone within the Micronesia territory, this tropical paradise is host to a large tropical rainforest, increasingly rare around the world. This forest covered island brings in many visitors each year who wish to enjoy the sunshine and observe the many natural wonders. Although many spend their time exploring the rich underwater ecosystem filled with exotic and rare sea species, the Republic of Palau encompasses equally astonishing plant and animal land species.
The Islands of Palau are covered with a dense, tropical moist forest that is home to an incredible amount of plant species. These forests thrive in Palau as the area is under strict environmental surveillance that provides a safe space for these forests to thrive.
Half of the world's species live in tropical rainforests because they provide a series of environments, differing between the cooler lower level all the way to the higher peaks that receive full sun. Palau's rainforests, however, are not home to any great family of animal with the exception of the high number of birds. In Palau, mammals are scarce excepting bats, which Palau has in excess.
