Famous lyrics by »
A jungle is land covered with dense vegetation dominated by trees. Application of the term has varied greatly over recent centuries and it has little scientific meaning. Before the 1970s, various tropical forests were referred to as jungles but this terminology has fallen out of usage. Jungles in Western literature can represent a less civilized or unruly space outside the control of civilization, attributed to the jungle's association in colonial discourse with places colonised by Europeans.
