Animals in Danger
Some of the animals and birds in the rainforest, such as monkeys and woodpeckers, live in the treetops. They are always swinging and flying from one tree to another looking for food among the leaves and branches. They even sleep in the treetops so they do not have to come down to the ground.
Have you heard that such animals and birds in the rainforests are in danger? Because people are cutting down so many trees in the forests, the animals are losing their homes. Do you know the reasons for it? Yes, people want wood, paper and land. As a result many animals and plants are dying. Some forests are so badly damaged that they become deserts.

瀕危動物
一些雨林中的動物和鳥類生活在樹頂上，例如猴子和啄木鳥。它們總是從一棵樹盪到或飛到另一棵樹上，在樹葉和樹枝間尋找食物。它們甚至在樹頂睡覺，所以它們不用到地面上來。
你知道嗎？雨林中的這些動物正處於危險中。因為人們砍伐了森林中的許多樹，動物們失去了家園。你知道人們砍樹的原因嗎？是的，人們需要木材、紙和土地。所以，許多動物和植物正在消亡。一些森林遭到了嚴重的破壞，變成了沙漠。
