Lively?

I've already said that this volcano has been extremely catastrophic, but strangely enough there is a good amount of life on the island. Since almost no humans have been on this island, it has had time to develop a small, yet living rainforst. It has a small ecosystem. After the 1883 explosion, most of the island and everything on it was wiped out. But eventually it started replenish its self. First seeds were spread on the island by wind or water. Trees started to develop on the island, and some creatures started to come over. Bats, birds, butterflies and many other animals started to develop on the island. They ate fruit and spread seeds starting a cycle of a small ecosystem. Eventually it grew about 80 different plant species with a fair amount of animals.
