GLI ESSERI VIVENTI

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.

MICRORGANISMI

The Black Colobus Monkey


is among the most endangered primate species in Africa.

What layer of the rainforest does the Black Colobus Monkey belong to?


The rainforest has 4 main layers:

• Forest floor - very dark, plants deteriorate quickly due to the lack of sun;
• Understory layer - plants with big leaves so that they can reach the sun, large concentration of insects;
• Canopy layer - primary layer on top of the first two, a mix of leaves and branches, many animals live here;
• Emergent layer - formed by the tallest trees, hardwood trees with broad leaves, plenty of sun.

What traits did the Black Colobus develop


in order to adjust to its habitat? Type in the answers.

Example: it has no thumbs since it has to leap through the forest habitat, and the chances of thumb injuries are very high.

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.

What layer of the rainforest does the Silvery Gibbon belong to?

• Forest floor - very dark, plants deteriorate quickly due to the lack of sun;
• Understory layer - plants with big leaves so that they can reach the sun, large concentration of insects;

What characteristics did the gibbon develop to adjust to its environment?

Example: The Silvery Gibbon has long arms that help it swing easily through the branches.

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.
