Surface Jungle



The Surface Jungle is a biome that appears on the surface of the world. It contains trees that have decorative jungle vines.

It hosts new types of enemies called the Jungle Bat, Jungle Slime, Piranha, (although Piranhas do spawn in other areas), and Snatcher. The land is covered in jungle grass, and the sky turns a kind of greenish hue when entered. Like the Underground Jungle, the ground is mostly mud. If your world was created before the 1.0.4 patch, it is possible to create an artificial jungle by placing mud over a large surface of the map and placing Jungle Grass Seeds on the mud. This is a good way to get lots of lumber without needing to plant anything. Jungle enemies will spawn and jungle trees will grow.

In the Jungle trees will automatically regrow anywhere there is 'Jungle Grass'. This feature was probably implemented because you are unable to place acorns on the mud. Jungle grass can be planted on mud in other locations using Jungle Grass Seeds. Trees can also grow underwater which is a feature exclusive to the Surface Jungle.

The Surface Jungle usually directly connects to the Underground Jungle, which can make it easier to find the Underground Jungle.

With the new, Hard Mode after killing the Wall of Flesh, the Jungle Biome is actually one of the safest on the surface. Jungle is the only biome that cannot be corrupted or hallowed, and nothing stronger spawns there either.
