There were thousands of different plants and animals in the forest, but now there is nothing. People chopped down the trees because they wanted to grow rice. Many animals lived in the rainforest. Some of them went to other parts of Java but many of them disappeared - forever. The same thing is happening now in many other parts of the world. The rainforests are in danger. | |
