By: Anthony Espinoza and David Holzmeister

2 What is a rain forest? The rainforest is a damp place where animals and plants live together. It also has four kinds layers. They are the emergent layer, the canopy,the under story, and the Forest floor.

3 Location of Rain Forests
Some rainforests are located in Venezuela,Colombia,Ecuador, Peru,Brazil,Bolivia Paraguay, and Uruguay,

4 Emergent Layer The Emergent layer is the top of the rainforest where it gets all the sunshine but the bottom does not get that much sunshine .It is because it is blocked by the emergent layer . They call it the emergent layer because the trees emerges out of the rainforest.

5 Canopy layer The canopy layer is where three toed sloth, birds, tree boas, spiders, spider monkeys , monkeys, scarlet macaws, boa constrictors, iguanas, toucans,and insects live together.

6 Understory Layer The Under story is the third layer of the rainforest .The animals that that live there are grasshoppers, red eye tree frogs, spiders, capuchin, parrots, monkey, butterflies, and tree porcupines.

7 Forest Floor The forest floor is the bottom of the rainforest. Where it only gets a little bit of sunshine. It mostly gets damp and steamy. The animals that live anteaters, insects, armadillo, anaconda, tapirs, dragonflies, ocelots, meat eating plant,and ants.

8 Deforestation Deforestation is when people cut down the trees and use it as paper and wood for houses. Also it’s ruining animal habitats so animals will die . So if they keep this up it will become a desert. They won’t have anything to eat and they will not be able to feed their babies.

9 People of the rain forest
