This article discusses how rivers in the Amazon region can act as barriers for animals, limiting their movements and creating centers of endemism. The Amazon forest is one of the most biodiverse places on Earth, with a large percentage of animal and plant species found there. The size and width of Amazonian rivers make them difficult for many animals to cross, leading to the isolation of different species on either side of the river. The article also explores how rivers can change over time, affecting animal distributions, and emphasizes the need for further research to understand the role of rivers in shaping the distribution and evolution of Amazonian animals.
