Extreme Rainforest

Rainforests cover only 6 percent of the Earth's surface, yet they support more than half of the world's plant and animal species. In this wet and often unstable environment, how do the sneaky creatuers creeping on the forest floor, the amazing animals lurking in plant pools, and the large beasts navigating the treacherous treetops adapt for survival? Toxic skin, poison-injecting fangs, sonic muscles, and hidden wings are just a few of the astounding tools that rainforest animals have at their disposal.
