Tropical Rainforest Animals

types of tropical rainforest animals

The tropical rainforest is famous for its diversity of animals.

Some of the typical rainforest animals include:

birdwing butterflies

spiders

and did you know there are even kangaroos and wallabies that live in the rainforest?

so, the tropical rainforest is famous for its diversity of animals.

How, just because there are many different SPECIES of animals,it doesn't mean that there are many different INDIVIDUALS of animals;that is, there may not be the abundance of animals as there is in, for example, an adjacent grassland in the tropics.

Animals in the rainforest are often shy, small, nocturnal and rare!

This makes them very difficult to find....
