SdA: Me gustan los animales.

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.

Lynx

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.

Which layer of the rainforest does the toucan 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 characteristics did the toucan develop while trying to adapt to this unique environment? Type in as many characteristics as you can find.

Example: Sharp, saw-like bill that helps it crack the nuts, berries and other fruits that it eats.
