==There are different temperatures in forests like in the rainforest it's warm and you get really sticky. There are alot o f forest such as: ==

The rainforest of Madagascar lies off east coast of Africa and it's the one place on earth that has lemurs and many one of a kind plants and animals.
==Rainforests are beautiful forests that are warm and sticky with water flowing down the stream and with tall trees and a warm climat e. ==

==Rainforests are located in Africa, Asia, Australia, central and south America and the largest rainforest in the world is the Amazon rainforest in South America. ==

==The canopy may be over 100 feet (30m) above the ground also many scientists do estimate that 60-90 percent of life in the rainforests is found in trees, making this the richest habitat for plant and animal life. Many well - known animals including: ==

90% of the non human primates are in the rainforest.

= What is a rainforest? = A rainforest is a climate that is the oldest living thing on earth and its vines and trees are strong and can survive over 1,000 years.The rainforest also contains more than 1/2 of the worlds plants and animal species, which means that in the rainforest it has 96% of animals in it.

Resources: Rainforests is the main source of many items that people use in there homes and we also eat many different kinds of foods from the rainforest and many medicines are made from the reasources from the rainforest.

Animals and plants: many of the common products we know of include: - chocolate - rubber - sugar - medicine - cinnamon - pineapples

At least two thirds of the plant species in the world, including many types of beautiful and interesting flowers grow in the rainforest.



==

 The disappearing rainforests:  We are losing the earths greatest, oldest living things and all of its treasures (the beautiful plants and animals) will lose their true/precious value. Rainforests once covered 14% of the earth's land surface and now they cover 6% and experts estimate that the least(or last) remaining could be consumed in less than 40 years

Where are rainforests? There are two types of rainforests: temperate and tropical Tropical rainforests are most likely to be close to the equator which means that the temperatures and rainfall are very high all year round.The major areas of tropical rainforests are in Asia and also the Pacific Islands, West and Central Africa, South and Central America.

Rainforests produces medicines and doctors and scientists are still waited to be discovered such as: - cancer -Ades
