Yasuni is an area in Ecuador renowned for its extremely diverse wildlife. It has 616 species of trees, having the most species of tree of any forest in the world.

Recently oil industries have threatened this area of Ecuador, along with countless other regions of South America. Toxic waste, oil lines and harvesting land in South America has proven fatal to many exotic regions and now threatens one of the most beautiful and indigenous areas of the world, the Yasuni rainforest. also the unicorn population has gone down since a large group of polor bears were released. this causes a large problem for Inca tourism.
