  2. Introduction Tropical Rainforests are found in Asia, Africa, Australia, and South and Central America. Tropical rainforests are warm, wet with many tall trees. In most tropical rainforests, it rains every day. The largest rainforest in the world is the Amazon rainforest in South America. They are homes for plants and animals and all rain forests are dangerous. Bibliography: http://www.globio.org/glossopedia/article.aspx?art_id=6

  6. animals Animal species in the rainforest also have many adaptations to life in trees and more. For example, prehensile tails are common on possums, and new world monkeys. Special flaps of lizards and frogs skin help to move smoothly between treetops. Bibliography: http://www.globio.org/glossopedia/article.aspx?art_id=6

  7. People in the rainforest People can live in and around the tropical rainforests for many thousands of years. They cut small parts of the rainforest to build their homes and to burn as firewood. Scientists discovered that they could use plants as medicine and food. Bibliography; http://www.globio.org/glossopedia/article.aspx?art_id=6

  8. Explorers Explorers thought the soil of a rainforest is very wealthy. They tried cutting the forest and turning it into farmland. It didn’t work. When a rainforest is burned or cut down, the soil can only be used for a very short time before it runs out of nutrients. Bibliography; http://www.globio.org/glossopedia/article.aspx?art_id=6
