Rainforest Animals  There are lots of animals in the rainforest including the red eyed tree frog which is shown below along with the toucan.  Red eyed tree frogs are green to blend in from insects it eats and from predators trying to eat it.  The toucan is one of the worlds most popular birds because of its really colorful beak. It also lives in South America.  The cryptic katydid also camouflages into its environment.  The owl moth can camouflage into its environment.  The chimpanzee is an endangered animal.

Human Interference in the Rainforest  The impact of humans to the rainforest is extremely bad but sometimes good.  Humans have ben doing some very bad things to the rainforest like clear cutting thousands of trees which we need to breath and get medicine.  But if you want to think positive, there are some scientists and foundations who are trying to preserve the rainforest to keep it alive.

Conclusion and Thoughts about the Rainforest  I really care about the rainforest and I think it is important to preserve it and keep it going.  The rainforest is being cut down severely and its very sad. But its good to know that people are preserving it.  I learned that there are many types of animals in the rainforest and that there are many parts of animals to the food chain such as consumers and producers. I learned about what animals eat what, how big flowers can be, how the climate is in the rainforest, and that people are still looking out for the rainforest to protect it.
