Rain Forest....

The rain forest is very moist and the temperature always stays at 25 Celsious. Rain forest is very important to our ecosystem it has about 50% of our animals and palnts there. The Rain forest is divided into 3 levels. The canopy is in top, it is where plants and vines are. The forest floor makes life and supports are animals and plants and is where bacteria and fungis lives. Grazing, farming, mining, and logging kills our rain forest. The under story is were the bushes and flowers live. Hopefully people will wise up and stop killing the tropical rainforest
