Scavengers are the organisms in the food chain that eat the leftovers of the carnivores' dinner. They don't work for their meal! But being a scavenger isn't that easy. The don't always find a meal ever day. Some scavengers in the rainforest are: vultures, cockroaches, earthworms, termites, and catfish. The scavengers play an important role in the food chain. If there weren't any scavengers, the rainforest would be littered with carcasses of previous meals. Yuck!
