Do some animals live in plants?

Plants are an important part of rainforests, providing animals and people with food, shade and shelter. Some animals, like tree frogs, live inside a type of plant called a bromeliad. Many bromeliads have stiff, overlapping leaves that, like buckets, hold rainfall inside them. Bromeliads are like small ecosystems where animals such as tree frogs, snails, flatworms, tiny crabs and salamanders can spend their entire lives.

What do some of the animals eat?

One way that scientists categorize animals is by analyzing their diets. Herbivores feed only on plants, carnivores on other animals and omnivores on both plants and animals. Some animals, like howler monkeys, are vegetarians. Other animals, like jaguars, are hunters and are known to eat more than 85 species of prey.
