There are many communities in El Yunque. One of these communities includes Coquis, Anoles, and Geckos. Coquis are eaten by Anoles and Geckos, while Anoles are eaten by Geckos. These smaller communities form ecosystems.

What Are Some Top Predators In El Yunque? 

# data[].attributes.body
There are some animals in El Yunque that don't have many if any predators. Among these creatures are animals such as adult iguanas, caimans, and red-tailed hawks. They are the top animals, and they eat almost every other animal, including Coquis, Tree Snails, Puerto Ricon Parrots, and other things. Their predators usually include bigger individuals of their species, and not many more creatures.

# data[].attributes.body
Coqui frogs are native to the Puerto Rico region and have demonstrated tremendous growth in population throughout the years. They eat tree snails, anoles, isopods, centipedes, and more in the forest. They've been identified as an invasive species in other warm locations like El Yunque due to their fast growth,.

What Would Happen If One Or More Of The Populations Disappeared From The Ecosystem?

# data[].attributes.body
If populations disappeared from the ecosystem, it would cause a domino effect because of the adaptations. Every organism is important because it may act as prey or even the predator. With no prey, animals would starve and become extinct. Without predators, there will be too much of another specimen and that will destroy the population of another specimen.

El Yunque National Forest is a tropical rain forest with warm temperatures throughout the year, being located on the equator, one of the hottest places a location can be at. Rain forests are  typically found near the equator.

# data[].attributes.body
These trees are native to the Puerto Rico region. Only grown in warm temperatures, Puerto Rico supplies enough of the warmth. Other organisms, such as the tree snail above, use it as food. This tree recovers quickly after hurricanes, making it one of the essential organisms to the forest because of how often hurricanes hit.

# data[].attributes.body
One of the dominating populations living in El Yunque National Forest is the tree snail. The tree snails survive off of the environment in El Yunque. El Yunque supplies these snails with shelter as these snails use the canopies as homes. They eat the fungi, sierran palms, pumpwood trees, and hibiscus grown in the forest.

How Do Biotic Factors Interact With Abiotic Factors?

# data[].attributes.body
Biotic factors depend on abiotic factors to live and thrive. They use and interact with the abiotic factors to get what they need such as shelter, water, and other things. For example, plants use the wind to spread their seeds. However, some of these abiotic factors are so crucial to the animals, that without them, the whole ecoscenario could fall apart. For example, rain provides the biotic factors with water for drinking, or for other things, such as cooling down. Without it, they can't live. Temperature also affects them immensely. The average temperature of this tropical forest is around 70°, and animals depend on it to stay that temperature. If it changes too much, then the animals wouldn't be able to handle it since their climate is consistent. They would probably die out. This is why the amount of rain and temperature needs to stay consistent.

How Do Us Humans Depend on the Ecosystem?

El Yunque is the first tropical rain forest of the United States. Forests in general provide most of the oxygen for the entire world. They absorb lots of carbon dioxide. This is important because one, oxygen is what we need to live, and two, carbon dioxide is a large factor in climate change. We use the forest as a tourist attraction to Puerto Rico.

What Biotic Organisms can be Found in El Yunque?

# data[].attributes.body
Thousands of specimen of vegetation, insects, and animals, inhabit El Yunque National Forest. Some of these organisms include tree snails, big-scaled least geckos, spiders, flowers, trees, and many more.

# data[].attributes.body
El Yunque is a tropical forest, meaning that it gets lots of rain, and is quite warm throughout the year. If these factors change too much, such as little rain, and cold weather, the ecosystem can't support the biotic factors, and they die out, leaving the ecosystem in chaos. This is why the climate needs to stay constant.

# data[].attributes.body
El Yunque is located between the Tropic of Cancer and the equator, in eastern Puerto Rico.
