The deciduous forest has

four distinct seasons;
autumn, winter, spring, and

leaves change color and
during the winter months the

Throughout the year,

deciduous forests
experience many different
types of precipitation like rain
and snow. Deciduous forests
receive about 14 inches of
rain in the winter months and
more than 18 inches of rain
in the summer.
Some of the animals in the
deciduous forest include
bears, box turtles, and many
types of birds and insects.
Raccoons, deer, squirrels,
chipmunks, and rabbits also
inhabit the forest. They
adapt to the climate by
hibernating in the winter.
Many of the animals look
camouflaged to look like the
ground.

Some of the specific plants

of the deciduous forest
include, azaleas, maple
trees, oak trees, birch trees,
and carpet moss.
Many different kinds of trees,
shrubs, and herbs grow in
deciduous forests. The
plants soak up the nutrients
from the ground and lean
toward the sun to adapt to
the environment.

of different types of
plants and label the

Although a lot of the

deciduous forests have been
lost to buildings and farms,
there are still people working
hard to preserve the beauty
and lives that the forests
contain. What can you do to
help preserve the deciduous
forests?
