Poison Jungle
(This is the page for the location known as the "Poison Jungle." You may be looking for the book, The Poison Jungle, instead.)
Template:Infobox Location The Poison Jungle, also known as Never-home, by some LeafWings, is a jungle located at the northeastern corner of Pantala. It forms Pantala's 'head,' similar to how the Ice Kingdom forms Pyrrhia's 'head.'[1]
It is the only forests located on the continent after to the Tree Wars, the legendary Pantalan War that wiped out most of the LeafWings. This is proven when Queen Wasp wipes out all trees on the continent other than the ones in the Poison Jungle as the plants there were too dangerous and thick for any HiveWings to penetrate.
It is described to have all sorts of deadly and poisonous plants, such as those that would eat you or immobilize you, hence it being called the Poison Jungle. Examples of these plants include sundews, venus dragon-traps, waterwheels as well as the quarantined Othermind. The stories surrounding it make it similar to the rumors about the Rainforest Kingdom on Pyrrhia. In the epilogue of The Hive Queen, the banks are described to be lined by "thick, oozing mud" which is infested with snakes[2]. The river that marks the jungle's boundary is called the Snarling River.
The Poison Jungle also has dangerous wildlife, as evidenced by the insects and myriapods that Sundew carries with her (as well as larger creatures).
