Canada has (temperate) rain forest on Vancouver Island. It is also under more or less constant threat of being cut down, some of it already has but a lot of it still standing. If you happen to be in the area it is more than worth taking a hike through Carmanah [1] for a real life Lothlorien/Middle Earth experience.
