Welcome to a South American rain forest! As you push your way through the thick, green jungle, you see, hear, and feel the wildlife. Howler monkeys screech overhead as they munch on leaves. Antbirds swoop by in search of tasty bugs. Day and night in the rain forest, the hunt is on to find food—and to avoid becoming someone else’s next meal. All living things are connected to one another in a food chain, from animal to animal, animal to plant, plant to insect, and insect to animal. What path will you take to follow the food chain through the rain forest? Will you ... Crouch in the shadows with a jaguar? Slither through the leaves with an anaconda? Lurk in the jungle night with a tarantula? Follow all three chains and many more on this who-eats-what adventure!
