The Weird & Wonderful Wildlife of the Equator
The equatorial sun powers the most competitive zone of life on our planet, driving an intense daily battle for survival in the ancient rainforests of southern Asia. High above the forest floor, massive eight-meter trees known as dipterocarps dominate the landscape, acting as selfish giants that hoard the sunlight and fill their leaves with deadly toxins. To survive in this vertical world, wildlife has evolved in truly spectacular ways. Down in the shadows, the competition only intensifies.
