Savannah

Savannahs, or tropical grasslands, are located near the equator in South America, Central Africa, and northern Australia, covering 20% of Earth's land. They experience two main seasons: a dry winter with minimal rainfall and a wet summer with significant precipitation. High temperatures and irregular rainfall limit tree growth, maintaining grass dominance. Wildfires, though destructive, are crucial for grass growth and soil enrichment. Savannah plants have adapted with deep roots, thick bark, and thorns. The region supports large herds, like the Serengeti wildebeest, which migrate in search of rain. The Savannah's ecological balance between destruction and creation makes it a fascinating habitat.
