The tropical rainforest has dense vegetation, often forming three different layers--the canopy, the understory, and the ground layer.The average temperature in tropical rainforests ranges from 70 to 85°F (21 to 30°C).

Their average life span is 15 years. Their weight from 240 to 700lbs. When summer approaches the caribou migrate north in one of the worlds largest-animal migrations.
