How do animals in the rainforest adapt to the large amount of rainfall? What animals do this?
Public Comments
- They climb, migrate, swim, build nests or homes, or go underground. They are used to this so the rainfall does not affect them. All of the animals do this or they would get eaten if they just sat still, and would not survive. They move during rain just like you move to get your rubber rain boots, hat, jacket, and umbrella!
- There are a large amount of Amphibians in the rainforest. They thrive in wet and moist environments. Reptiles do quite well in the wet too, but are built different than reptiles in the desert and temperate regions. Many animals that aren't so adept at living in extremely wet conditions live in the forest canopy. The sheer mass of floral cover provides protection from a lot of the rain.
