Tropical rainforests support a greater number and variety of animals than any other biome. One of the reasons for this great variety of animals is the constant warmth. Tropical rainforests also provide a nearly constant supply of water and a wide variety of food for the animals. Small animals, including monkeys, birds, snakes, rodents, frogs, and lizards are common in the tropical rainforest. Many of these animals and a multitude of insects never set foot on the ground. The animals use the tall trees and understory for shelter, hiding places from their predators, and a source of food.Image of a sloth.Animal adaptationBecause there are so many animals competing for food, many animals have adapted by learning to eat a particular food eaten by no other animal. Toucans have adapted by developing long, large bill. This adaptation allows this bird to reach fruit on branches that are too small to support the bird's weight. The bill also is used to cut the fruit from the tree.The sloth uses a behavioral adaptation and camouflage to survive in the rainforest. It moves very, very slowly and spends most of its time hanging upside down from trees. Blue-green algae grows on its fur giving the sloth a greenish color and making it more difficult for predators to spot

Hello didi

Answer:- The rain forest is home to about 50 percent of the world’s animals. It is a wonderful environment for them because they have everything they need to survive. The largest rain forest is the Amazon where you will find the second-longest river, of the same name, in the world. Other places where you can find rain forests are Africa, Asia, Central America and Australasia.

Climate

The weather in the rain forest is warm and humid for the entire year. Animals don't have to contend with season changes. Rain forests are basically jungles with many trees and plants. The rain forest embodies four layers -- emergent, canopy, understory and the forest floor -- with different species occupying each layer that is best suited to aid in their survival. Rain forests get their name from the great abundance of rain they receive, usually more than 80 inches annually, which is about 1 1/2 inches per week.

Food

Gathering food for the day's meals can be competitive for animals who eat the same foods. However, many animals learn to choose foods that other animals shun. They adapt to this type of diet, which helps them to survive in the rain forest. Some of these may include fruit, leaves or nuts.

Shelter

Due to the four layers that are present in the rain forest, it is an ideal shelter for the animals that live there. The top layer, or emergent layer, has trees that are very tall. This is where you find the animals that need the most sun, such as butterflies, monkeys, eagles and bats. The canopy layer has the most food near it. This layer provides shelter from the sun, but it is still light. You may see tree frogs and toucans in this layer. The understory layer has little light that leopards and jaguars prefer. The bottom layer, or the forest floor, is dark. Some animals that live on the forest floor include anteaters, green iguanas and lots of insects.
