  Another producer of the rainforest is the Strangler Figs.  This tree at first begins life as a sticky seed left on a high branch by some animal.  As it grows, it develops long roots and descends along the trunk of the host tree eventually reaching the ground.These trees are a “keystone” species because they are really important to the animals of the rainforest.  The produce food for animals 7 times a year and its always a supply of food to the animals all year long.

How does this tree help other around it?

The Kapok tree is extremely huge and can reach up to 200 feet in height. Its trunk is also about nine to ten feet in diameter.  As a producer of the rainforest it does a great job at spreading its seeds to make anywhere between 500 and 4,000 fruits all at once.
