Explanation:

In the Peruvian Amazon there are still areas that have not been intervened by any human activity. However, these pristine spaces, the so-called primary forests, are being reduced due to deforestation.

The original extension of these forests in the Peruvian jungle was 73.1 million hectares - before the European colonization around 1750 - but now only 67 million remain. That is to say, 6.1 million hectares were lost.

However, the greatest deforestation occurred in the last two decades. A total of 2,000,000 hectares of primary forests have disappeared in Peru since 2000, according to a recent report by the Andean Amazon Monitoring Project (MAAP). The main causes: illegal mining, monocultures, illegal logging and road construction.
