What animals live in the middle layer of the rainforest?
Understory - The Middle LayerSmaller trees, bushes, and plants such as ferns, live in the understory. Not much sunlight reaches here, because the canopy blocks the sun. Still, many birds and animals make their home in the understory. Forest wildcats, such as the leopard, are excellent tree climbers. They will chase monkeys and squirrels through the understory for food.
What layer do Bats live in?
Bats live in the understory layer of the rainforest. The understory is below the canopy and it's much easier for bats to fly in this layer.
How much sunlight enters in each layer of the rainforest?
In a rainforest, sunlight penetration varies significantly by layer. The emergent layer receives the most sunlight, with up to 80% of the sun's rays, while the canopy layer absorbs about 70% of the remaining light. Below the canopy, in the understory, only about 5% of sunlight reaches the plants, and the forest floor receives less than 2%, resulting in low-light conditions that support shade-tolerant vegetation. This gradual decrease in light availability influences the types of plants and animals that thrive at each level.
Why doesn't the understory get much sunlight?
It has a small amount of light that reaches the understory and forest floor because it has a limited source of sunlight left for the plants and animals to live in
What plants can be found in the understory layer of the rainforest?
Plants that can be found in the understory layer of the rainforest include ferns, shrubs, young trees, and vine plants. These plants have adapted to lower light levels and compete for sunlight in the dense canopy above. Some examples are ferns like bird's nest ferns, shrubs like understory palms, and vines like vanilla orchids.
