Many species of animal life can be found in the rain forest. Common characteristics found among mammals and birds (and reptiles and amphibians, too) include adaptations to a life in the trees, such as the prehensile tails of New World monkeys. Other characteristics are bright colors and sharp patterns, loud vocalizations, and diets heavy on fruits.

Insects make up the largest single group of animals that live in tropical forests. They include brightly colored butterflies, mosquitoes, camouflaged stick insects, and huge colonies of ants.

That really depends on the rainforest in question and what you mean by dominant. If by dominant you mean which animals are at the top of the food chain - then largely you will find it is panthers, leopards, tigers and other large carnivores (which mind you are becoming more and more scarce due to poaching and habitat loss).
