Detailed explanation-1: -Poison dart frogs can be found in the tropical rainforests of Central and South America. Unlike many other amphibians, poison dart frogs are diurnal. Most species are terrestrial but a few are arboreal.

Detailed explanation-2: -Amphibians such as frogs usually keep close to bodies of water, where their skin can stay moist. In tropical rainforests however, the prevalent humidity enables them to occupy a much wider range. Not surprisingly, frogs are mostly found in trees, relatively safe from predators.

Detailed explanation-3: -The toco toucan, the largest and best-known toucan species, is at home in South America’s tropical forests. Its oversized, colorful bill has made it one of the world’s most popular birds: They’re familiar commercial mascots, known for hawking stout, cereal, and other products.

Detailed explanation-4: -Rainforests are excellent homes for monkeys for many reasons. One is the abundance of food. Most monkeys are herbivores that chow down on fruits, leaves, nuts and sometimes insects, all of which are readily abundant year round in the steady climate and lush, dense trees of the rainforests.
