2. Animals in Rainforest
 There are many species of plants and animals in the rainforest. A
common estimate is that
approximately half of the world's animal species live in
rainforests. Another estimate is that
25 percent of the world's medicine is derived from rainforest plants.
Examples of Rainforest animals:
 Gorila
 Frog
 Boa
 Toucan

3. Animals in Alpine Forest
 Again, many of the animal species one encounters in the mountains are
similar to those that would be found in taiga or tundra
habitats. Others, however, have specific adaptations to the
mountains. Steller's jays (above) and the Chickaree (right) are two
species one often encounters in coniferous forests in the westeruntains
of the United States.
 Examples of alpine forest animals:
 Steller's Jay
 Chickaree
 Hoary Marmoat
 Mountain Goat

4. Animals in Equatorial Forest
 The Pacific Equatorial Forest is a tropical forest ecosystem located at 0°
latitude in coastal Ecuador, in the province of Manabí. The ecosystem is most
notable for its high diversity of forest types unusually close in
proximity. Tropical rainforest, moist evergreen forest, premontane cloud forest,
and tropical deciduous forest can all be encountered over the course of a one-
day hike, and the change from one type of forest to another can occur in as
little as 100 meters.

$ Crocodiles
$ Wild Buffaloes

5. Animals in Temperate Forest
 Temperate deciduous forests or temperate broad-leaf forests are
dominated by trees that lose their leaves each year. They are found in areas
with warm, moist summers and mild winters. The three major areas of
this forest type occur in the Northern Hemisphere: eastern North
America, eastern Asia, and Europe. Smaller areas occur in Australasia and
southern South America. Examples of typical trees include oak, maple, beech,
and elm.
