Mexico is one of the countries with the greatest biodiversity in the world, because due to its geographical location What gives it such a wide variety of climates is that it is home to 12% of the world’s species (12,000 of which are endemic).

The country is located in two completely different areas as it is crossed by the Tropic of Cancer: on the one hand there is the tropical zone and on the other with a temperate climate, however, these are intermingled by the oceans and the reliefs that surround Mexico, giving rise to more weather.

Given this, it is not surprising to find that in the highest parts of Chihuahua temperatures are around -30 degrees, while in the Mexicali desert the thermometer reaches up to 50 degrees.

The country has a hot and rainy zone which includes the lower coastal plain of the Gulf of Mexico and the Pacific; warm-humid and warm sub-humid regions found in the coastal plains of the Gulf of Mexico, the Pacific Ocean, the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, northern Chiapas and the Yucatan Peninsula; dry climate in the Western and Eastern Sierra Madre, the upper basins of the Balsas and Papaloapan rivers, parts of the isthmus of tehuantepec, Yucatan and Chiapas; the temperate zones, mainly the territory north of the Tropic of Cancer; and semi-desert, north of the Altiplano.

The average temperature of the country is 19 degrees, however, there are cities like Mexicali, Culiacán, Ciudad Juárez, Hermosillo, Torreón, Saltillo or Monterrey where the high temperatures are really extreme.
