Urban Rainforest
On the west side of the island of Manhattan in New Y0rk City，tree by tree，leaf by leaf， a 2，500 square foot sector of the Central African Republic's Dzanga Ndoki Rainforest has been transported to，or recreated at，the American Museum of Natural History's new hall of biodiversity.When the hall opens this May， visitors will visit one of the world's biggest and most accurate reproduction of one of nature's most threatened creations.
To bring the rainforest to New Y0rk.a team of nearly two dozen scientists—the largest collecting expedition the museum has ever organised for an exhibit — spent five weeks in the African rainforest collecting soil，plants，and leaves；recording and documenting species；studying trees；shooting videotape and still photos；and interviewing local people.“This area has been explored very little，” says Hoel Cracraft who estimates that the museum will eventually collect 150 to 180 mammals，more than 300 species of birds，hundreds of butterflies，and hundreds of thousands，if not 111illions，of organisms.The exhibition may even have produced a special prize - scientists suspect they have uncovered several new species.
