Every Animal Needs a Home

I am a bird with a long, colorful beak. I am a toucan ! My beak looks heavy, but it's not. I use my beak to eat lizards, eggs and fruit.

Can you hear my wings beating? I am a hummingbird . I can flap my wings very quickly to fly forwards and backwards. I can even hover in mid-air! I eat bugs and nectar, a sugary liquid inside flowers.

I am a tapir . I look a little bit like a pig. I have a long snout that I use to grab and eat leaves and fruit. I can even dive into rivers to find plants that grow in the water!

There are many types of monkeys in the rainforest. I am a capuchin monkey . I am small and my fur is brown and white. I eat lots of different things, like fruit, bugs, leaves, nuts, frogs, lizards and even small birds.

I am a leafcutter ant . I am called that because I use my mouth to cut large pieces of leaves from trees. But I do not eat the leaves. I bring them back to my nest. I use the leaves to grow fungus, a spongy material. Then I eat the fungus!

I am a red-eyed tree frog . I have bright green skin, red eyes and a long, sticky tongue. I use my tongue to catch and eat bugs.
