Article in The New York Times titled, "In Puerto Rico, a Rain Forest Full of Easy Adventure" is a compilation of descriptions of the rainforest and what surrounds you when inside of the forest. It is a discovered fact that this forest is the only national rainforest in the world under the supervision and care of the United States. It is also known as the largest rainforest on the island coming up to be a full 28,000 acres with over 1,000 different plant and animal species. A common trip through the forest is full of trails and large beautiful rocks and waterfalls filled with beautiful green color. The climate in Puerto Rico being very humid and warm may make this trip feel long, yet is one of the coolest areas on the island averaging around 73 degree Fahrenheit. The dozens of trails available to the public is what makes the national forest so easily enjoyable and accessible to the public. El Yunque is a very popular landmark in Puerto Rico, and for the island being so small, this forest builds the character that makes up for the limited space, with the highlights of the forest being the beautiful (almost magical) scenery and wild life all living among the amazingly jungle feel of all the plants and trees and cool water that falls through when it rains. Because it rains almost 100-150 feet overall in a year on average, along with a constant hurricane season, keeps the rainforest on its toes keeping the plants strong and adaptive, with a strong stable surrounding environment. El Yunque is a part of the enchanting vision of the Island of Puerto Rico that keeps the visitors coming, and the preservation of the forest (and the island) alive.
