Mammals living in the Subtropical/Tropical Dry forest

These forests occur in year-round warm climates, where a couple of hundred centimeters of rain per year is not uncommon. Apart from that, they deal with long dry seasons of several months which vary with geographic location. These seasonal droughts have great impact on all things living in the forest.
