Colombia

Colombia, the world's second-most biodiverse country, is a megadiverse paradise spanning Amazon rainforests, Andes mountains, and Caribbean coastlines. Despite covering just 0.7% of Earth's landmass, it hosts 10% of global species—including 1,900+ bird types (most worldwide), 500+ amphibians, and vibrant ecosystems like Chocó’s cloud forests. Home to spectacles like rainbow-colored river Caño Cristales and endangered species (e.g., cotton-top tamarins), Colombia balances ecological wealth with conservation challenges like deforestation. Its unparalleled biodiversity makes it a keystone for global climate resilience and ecotourism.
