A forest is an area with a high density of trees.Forests cover about 30% of the land surface.A forest is a natural formation.It is the habitat of many species of animals and plants.

Planted forests are those with specific goals, and both can be formed by native species such as exotic.This is the type of forests used for timber production and more.

Forests are destroyed mainly by human activity.Deforestation is not a recent phenomena, we think that in prehistoric times it was already underway in various locations around the world.
