1 Non-fiction: Saving the Rain Forests Saving the Rain Forests Tim Flach/Getty Images The red-eyed tree frog lives in the rain forest. Tropical rain forests are in danger. For years, people have been cutting down trees to make room for farms and roads. Many plants and animals are in danger of becoming extinct, or completely gone. When rain forests are cut down, animals lose their homes, says Kerry Zobor. She works at the World Wildlife Fund. More carbon dioxide fills the air. Scientists think that makes Earth get warmer. If it gets too hot, it could cause many animals to go extinct. The World Wildlife Fund is a group working to protect animals and habitats. A habitat is a place in nature where an animal or a plant lives. We are working every day to help save rain forests around the world, says Zobor. Brent Stirton/Getty Images A large area of this rain forest has been destroyed. 1 Article: Copyright 2009 Weekly Reader Corporation. All rights reserved.
