The lion tamarin is the king of the jungle even though it is just a little smaller than a normal squirrel. They are called the king of the forest because of the bushy mane around there head just like a lion. This cool creature has big claws so they can scrape the bark off of trees and eat it the bugs that live in the bark. They also dig under trees to get incests. The lion tamarin are sensitive to direct sun light so when the hottest part of the day come the go in to deep vegetation. The diet of the tamarin is pretty simple they are omnivores meaning that they eat both plants and animals. Most of the day the tamarins look for there favorite foods like small fruit, wild roaches, and even small snakes and lizards. Lion tamarins get up to 12 inches tall not including there tail and they get up to two pound. Tamarins talk to each other by clicking and whining.
Bahia is located in southern Brazil and is as big as France. Bahia is the largest state in Brazil. Bahia takes up 90 miles of the coast of the Atlantic ocean. 90% of the forest is destroyed making it hard for the animals to live.
The humans have been a threat to Bahia because they have cut down 90% of the forest, and the animal are in great danger because they have no where to live. The humans are also polluting the forest air because when they cut down trees they also are bringing in truck and other stuff that runs on oil.
I choose Bahia because I love forests and I also wanted to do something in South America. When I found Bahia I was very happy. I am really interested in learning about new exciting places. I really like to learn about new animals like the tamarins. When I herd Bahia rains warm water not cold I was really interested. So when you go to Bahia get out you scrub brushes!
