Answer:

There are a number of reasons for biodiversity in the tropical rainforest including: the hot and wet climate provides ideal conditions for many species of plants and animals to thrive. Large areas of rainforest are untouched by humans, allowing nature to thrive.

Other rain forest mammals include sloths, tapirs, jaguars, ocelots, kinkajous, lemurs and agouti. The warm, moist environment is also an ideal habitat for reptiles and amphibians. Many types of frogs, salamanders, snakes and lizards can be found in almost every layer of the forest.

The canopy system characteristic of tropical rainforests further increases diversity by creating new niches in the form of new sources of food, new shelters, new hiding places, and new areas for interaction with other species. In fact, it is estimated that 70-90 percent of life in the rainforest is found in the trees.
