Since the canopy of the trees in the rain forest are high up there arent many plants living except for fungus and seedlings. As far as animals go there are many birds up there to escape the threat of predators down below. There are also many different species of primates that dwell in the canopy such as lemurs and baboons.

Answer:

The diversity of the rainforest canopy depends on the rainforest location - the Amazonian forest is very different from that of Canada's British Columbia. Using th Amazonian forest as an example, the canopy of the rainforest is a vibrant ecology with hundreds of species of plants and animals. The plant species include the trees producing the canopy, parasitic species, and fungi. The animals include a wide range of mammals (monkeys, sloths, predators, bats), insects, reptiles, amphibians
