The two is virtually the same Americans use Jungle while British style English call it Forest.
You are very wrong. Stop misleading people because you want to promote ignorance.

Reference:
I see.

So where are the tik-tok videos coming from....
Where a whole battalion of captives can be hidden for months without detection.
Where a group of renegades are operating a defacto government. Is that where 'only animals live'....

Pray that Nigeria doesn't reach the Escobar levels where a whole country was built in the jungle and completely out of bounds to government for years until the man decided to interfere with his 'neighbouring' country....that is a Colombia within a Colombia.
Yes, the people that decides to make bush their habitations are animals, and should be treated like animals.
Govt knows what to do, but have been taming these animals, you don't tame wild animals, you will only be taking a regrettable risk!

Jungle is a derogatory colonialist word, which is used for a forest in the tropical regions in general, and in Africa in particular.
As stated in the description, the word "jungle" cannot be used for a forest in the temperate regions, no matter how such a forest looks like.
What can we do?
We may simply call every forest a "forest".

Simply put a forest is when a girl trimmed her this thing, while a jungle is when her this thing has never been trimmed nor shaved since she was borned.

That is why Africa has remained in the dark because majority of the people are narrow-minded and find it difficult to learn. Your Geography teacher in school would be ashamed of you.
Shut up ogbeni. Go use forest and jungle collet job at the Nigeria meteorological agency. Alakori.

Rapmoney, abeg also create thread to educate nairalanders about d difference between Bride price and Dowry. cool
I don dey sick of seeing Nigerians always instead of saying Bride price, dem go confidently d say dowry cool
d worse part be say when u correct dem, dem go d argue cool
Na simple thing na.
Bride price na the groom money wey he pay to the bride family for dem to give their daughter to am. While, dowry na the bride and her family contribution to the couples to start a new family.

There are words people erroneously use interchangeably, but there are clear distinctions between them.

Today, we are looking at FOREST and JUNGLE.

Is there any difference between a forest and a jungle? Yes, there are differences.

Jungle is actually a type of forest. While a forest is a broad term for any large area covered in trees (found in all climates). A jungle is a specific, tangled, and overgrown region typically found in the tropics, where thick undergrowth often makes the area impassable.

1. Vegetation Density: Forests have organized tree structures and are generally easy to walk through. Jungles are dense tangles of vines, shrubs, and trees where ground-level vegetation is often impenetrable without machetes.

2. Sunlight: Forests often have dense canopies that allow for shaded, clear forest floors. In a jungle, the thick chaotic ground growth results from sunlight penetrating at the edges or through gaps, causing lush undergrowth.

3. Climate: Forests exist in virtually any climate—from temperate pine forests in Canada to boreal forests in Siberia. Jungles are almost exclusively warm, humid, and tropical.

4. Geography: Forests are large regions that can cover massive swaths of the globe. Jungles are usually smaller ecosystems situated on the outer margins or edges of tropical rainforests.

I hope say you dor learn one or two today.

Keep learning and keep growing. The mind that learns is the mind that grows.
