THE TROPICAL RAINFOREST By Jarred Barker and Tyler Mintus Don’t forget: you aren't doing all of the work. Hey, these boxes are handy! I should write things in here more often.

2 Where is It on earth? Rainforests are located in Mexico, south America, Africa, and parts of southern Asia.

3 Plants that live in the rainforest
The rainforest is home to all sorts of plants including flowers, carnivores such as a Venus flytrap, mushrooms, and one of the largest plants in the world, the Rafflesia arnoldii

4 These are just some plants that live in the rainforest
These are just some plants that live in the rainforest. There hundreds among thousands of differing species of plants that make up the rainforest.

5 ADAPTIATIONS Plants in the rainforest have to adapt to things like poor soil conditions. Another thing is that most sunlight and rain does not reach the ground, so plants need to get food in other ways.

6 The tropical rainforest has many abiotic factors including rocks and water.

7 ANIMALS OF THE RAINFOREST
There are many different animals in the rainforest reptiles= anaconda, camion crocodile, loggerhead turtle Amphibians= red-eyed tree frog, poison dart frog, northern glass frog, Surinam toad Mammals= African elephant, black howler monkey, proboscis monkey, capybara monkey, giant anteater Insects= leafcutter ant, tarantula, bird-eating spider, blue morpho butterfly, praying mantis Birds= African grey parrot, king vulture, oscillated turkey, scarlet macaw

8 ADAPTATIONS OF ANIMALS
There are many animals in the rainforest, so food is scarce. Animals have adapted by eating one sole thing. Some birds survive by eating things other animals cant eat, like pinecone seeds.
