1 Rain forests are amazing! We usually think of rain forests being in the tropical areas of the world. Many of them are. When we walk on the damp, muddy ground of a tropical rain forest, we see trees standing high to the sky. We see plants displaying the most brightly colored flowers to attract bees and butterflies. We see a couple of monkeys jumping from one tree to another. We see two toucans using their huge, colorful beaks to toss nuts to each other. We see a poison dart frog carrying its young on its back. Watch out! We also see a leopard staring at us! Tropical rain forests are so full of life because the weather here is hot and humid all year round. The average temperature is 77 degrees Fahrenheit, and the average monthly rainfall is 4 inches. About two-thirds of all the plant and animal species in the world live in rain forests.
