The forest floorVery little light reaches the forest floor because

of the canopy. It is very hot and humid and you see the wide trunks of the tall trees and

the small plants growing on the floor.

Animals in the forest floor

The forest floor is home to many species of animals such as bats,

possums, frogs, snakes, anteaters, cassowaries and more

Plants and trees in the forest floor

Mosses, herbs and fungi grow here. It is very hot and humid. Fallen leaves, dead plants and animals will decay

very quickly. When a tree falls it provides extra light for other plants to grow such as lianas, herbs and

saplings to grow.
