Iguanas in the RainforestTom
IntroductionThe rainforest is very important because it has medicine and it gives us some foods like oranges, vanilla, and chocolate. I like the rainforest. There are four layers in the rainforest. They can be found in Asia, South America, Central America, Africa and the Pacific Islands.
Forest Floor and Understory
The forest floor is filled with all types of animals. The understory has a lot of animals such as birds and jaguars.
Canopy and Emergent LayerThe
canopy is home of birds and much more. The emergent layer is the highest point in the rainforest.
AppearanceIguanas are pretty big animals. They are usually green. They also have dark colored bands on their bodies. Some of them even have pretty pattered skin.
Products and Supplies We get
lots of products from the rainforest like wood, coconuts, and my favorite ones, cocoa and vanilla also oranges.
HabitatIguanas
mostly live in South West USA, Mexico, Central America, The West Indies and South America. They also live in the canopy.
DietIguanas
mostly eat fruits, vegetables, leaves, insects, and rodents.
Predators and PreyIguanas are endangered. They are on the endangered list of animals. They like to prey on rodents. Their predators are wild dogs and humans.

the things they need to survive. food, camouflage, burrows, and very, very sharp teeth.
