Asia

Asia, the world's largest and most populous continent, features a spectacular variety of climates and habitats home to an impressive array of wildlife, including the Siberian tiger in the tundra and orangutans in the tropical rainforests of Southeast Asia. The continent's diverse topography ranges from the highest point at Mount Everest to the lowest at the Dead Sea, encompassing significant bodies of water like the Indian and Pacific Oceans and major rivers such as the Ganges, Yangtze, and Mekong. These varied environments support diverse aquatic and terrestrial life. However, Asia's wildlife is severely threatened by rapid urbanization, deforestation, poaching, and climate change, highlighting the urgent need for enhanced conservation efforts to protect its unique and globally significant biodiversity.
