Tigers stalk among Indian mangroves, bears bound through Alaskan temperate rainforest, and orangutans swing in Indonesia. Of course, none of these would exist without the lush plant life—soaring kapok trees, sturdy teak, and tenacious epiphytes throng the forests. A thousand orchids bloom in dazzling colors, and emerald-bright mosses coat damp branches.
