A rainforest is a place that has a jungle of trees.
It gets a lot of rain there. Many kinds of animals
and plants live there because they like it being
hot and very wet.
Where in the world are the rain
forests?
The problem that exists
People are burning the rainforest down to make
fields for planting crops and grazing animals
Every year an area of
a rainforest is cut
down and destroyed.
The animals that
used to live in these
forests die or find a
new forest to live in.
(Most of them die)
Anteater
Red eyed frog
