Human Activities
Cutting down trees to use for houses, paper, and furniture is bad for the rainforest and us. This is bad for us because we are not getting enough oxygen in the world. We also lose plants and animals.
Killing animals is bad for the rain forest. for example we are loosing elephants because people want there tusks.

The Climate
The seasons do not change in the tropical rainforest. It has been hot and wet for millions of years. The average temperature year-round is about 80 degrees Fahrenheit. The tropical rain forest is the wettest place on earth. It rains every day. In one year it may rain about 100 to 400 inches. This means that 9 to 30 feet of rain may fall each year.

Bengal Tiger
Found in the Southeast Asian Rainforest. Bengal tigers live in tropical rainforests, forests and mangroves in southern and southeastern Asia. Instead of having a tongue bone, like cats, tigers have cartilage in their mouth that allows them to ROAR as loud as they do.
The tigers orange fur is the color of dry grass. The tigers black stripes look like shadows from grass.
