Although there is some debate, most scientists agree that the Amazon is the world&#8217;s second longest river after the River Nile.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4.<\/strong>\u00a0In 2007, a man named\u00a0<strong>Martin Strel\u00a0<\/strong>swam the entire length of the Amazon river! To complete his splashing jungle journey, Martin powered through the water for up to ten hours a day for 66 days!<\/p>\n<p><strong>5.<\/strong>\u00a0Around 400-500 indigenous\u00a0<strong>Amerindian<\/strong>\u00a0tribes call the Amazon rainforest home. It&#8217;s believed that about fifty of these tribes have never had contact with the outside world!<\/p>\n<p><strong>6.<\/strong>\u00a0The Amazon has an incredibly rich ecosystem &#8211; there are around\u00a0<strong>40,000 plant species<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>1,300 bird species<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>3,000 types of fish<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>430 mammals\u00a0<\/strong>and a whopping\u00a0<strong>2.5 million different insects<\/strong>. Wow!<\/p>\n<p><strong>7.<\/strong>\u00a0The Amazon is home to a whole host of fascinating &#8211; and deadly! &#8211; creatures, including\u00a0<strong>electric eels<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>flesh eating piranhas<\/strong>,<strong>\u00a0poison dart frogs<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.natgeokids.com\/uk\/discover\/animals\/general-animals\/jaguar-facts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">jaguars<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0and some seriously<strong>\u00a0venomous snakes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>8.\u00a0<\/strong>One fascinating fish found in the Amazon is the\u00a0<strong>Pirarucu<\/strong>\u00a0(also known as the <strong>arapaima<\/strong> or <strong>paiche<\/strong>).\u00a0A menacing meat-eater, the pirarucu guzzles up other fish and can grow to nearly\u00a0<strong>3m long<\/strong>!
