Although they make up less than 1% of the land, Australias rainforests are home to about 60% of the continents plant and animal species. These areas are ancient and serve as a direct connection to the supercontinent Gondwana. One example is the Daintree Rainforest in Queensland, which is believed to be over 180 million years old, making it the oldest tropical rainforest still in existence.

Reverse

History

These forests have adapted over time to deal with Australias dry and changing climate. Some species, like the southern beech, are considered living fossils that link back to ancient Antarctic forests. Australias rainforests come in different forms, including tropical, temperate, subtropical, and dry types.
