| | Earth Floor: Biomes |
 | | Mammals that are commonly found in a deciduous forest include bears, raccoons, squirrels, skunks, wood mice, and, in the U.S., deer can be found in these forests. |
 | | While bobcats, mountain lions, timberwolves, and coyotes are natural residents of these forests, they have nearly been eliminated by humans because of their threat to human life. |
 | | Other animals that were native to this biome, such as elk and bison, have been hunted to near extinction. |
