Identify how rainforest animals have adapted to live in this unique environment.
Rainforests in Central America, Amazon, Asia, Africa, and Australia cover about 6% of our earth's surface, but they are the home ground for more than half of the species of animals in the world.
The Koala
is a marsupial often mistaken for a bear due to its large and furry stout body.
The Madagascar Hissing Cockroach
has become famous because of its bizarre way of producing sounds. This cockroach makes a hissing sound by pushing air through tiny holes in its body.
The Silvery Gibbon
can only be found on the island of Java, Indonesia. Due to their isolated location, it is estimated that less than 2000 Silvery Gibbons are currently living in their natural habitat.
The Toucan
is one of the most important species in the rainforest because it spreads the seeds of the fruits and plants that it eats, therefore contributing to plant biodiversity.
