OSCARS CAN BE FOUND IN THEIR NATURAL ENVIRONMENT IN THE AMAZON RIVER IN SOUTH AMERICA. THE AMAZON IS THE LARGEST BODY OF FRESHWATER IN THE WORLD. THE RIVER ORIGINATES IN THE ANDES MOUNTAINS IN PERU AND IS FED BY MANY TRIBUTARIES ALONG ITS 3000 MILE JOURNEY EASTWARDS TOWARDS THE ATLANTIC OCEAN. THE AMAZON RIVER RUNS ALONG THE EQUATOR THROUGH SOUTH AMERICA. ITS GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION ON THE EQUATOR PROVIDES IT WITH ITS WET AND HUMID CLIMATE. THE OSCAR CAN BE FOUND IN THE AREAS HIGHLIGHTED IN RED IN THE MAP BELOW.

THE OSCAR LIVES IN THE AMAZON ALONG WITH A MYRIAD OF AQUATIC LIFE .

THE LATIN NAME IS ASTRONOTUS OCELLATUS AND MEANS" MARKED WITH A STAR ON ITS BACK". THIS REFERS TO THE EYE MARKING ON THE CAUDAL FIN WHICH IS THOUGHT TO CONFUSE PREDATORS
