LOADS OF ANIMALS LIVE IN THE UNDERSTORY
MOST OF THE HOUSE PLANTS ARE THE PLANTS IN THE UNDERSTORY

THE RAINFOREST UNDERSTORY IS VERY HOT, VERY DAMP, AND THE AIR IS STILL..
DURING THE HOTTEST PART OF THE DAY IT IS VERY STILL
The small amount of light in the understory encourages the plants to think of smart ways to survive.The leaves of many of the plants are very large, so that they can absorb or soak in as much sunlight as possible. The plants in this layer of the forest hardly ever grow higher than twelve feet.
