Jungle - Giant uncharted territory in the area thousands of kilometers, filled with terrifying creatures that at any moment could jump out at you from the bushes. Just think about what you suddenly were there and would be scary.

And all wild vertebrates in the world amounting to weigh no more than 10 million tonnes.
