The flawless synergy between life cycles and the floods within the amazon
In this great tropical rainforest there are only two seasons, a dry season and a rainy or flood season, which mark the life cycle of the millions of species in this ecosystem. Flooding marks the beginning of the reproductive season, with fish being the first beneficiaries as the high water level allows them easy access to the fruit and stems of the trees. Charged with this energy, they reproduce massively, spreading their eggs among the marshes, lakes and jungle wetlands which merge during this season.
In this bonanza of fish activity, the pink dolphin devours them to ease their gestation and the charapas turtles feed on the fruit before reproducing. In this way, both species prepare to receive the next generation between May and June, ensuring an ideal environment for their young at the beginning of the dry season, when the large flooded areas are divided into small bodies of water without large predators.
Adapting to this vital chain, governed by the natural cycles of the Amazon rainforest, is vital for the proliferation and prosperity of all species.
