Land Biomes- Grasslands

prairies are cooler compared to savannas

prairies are North American temperate grasslands (heartland)- where we farm

many tall grasses that are yellow, soil is deep and fertile, with very few trees due to lack of rain

savannas are tropical grasslands because of warmer climate and more rainfall than temperate grasslands

savannas are tropical grasslands because of warmer climate and more rainfall than temperate grasslands

both grassland types are prone to wildfires so plants typically have deep roots that are spread out

savannas have a wet season and droughts- droughts are difficult here and cause animals to have to search for water

prairies have hot summers and cold winters

animals in the savanna include herding animals like zebras, gazelles, giraffes as well as rhinos, warthogs, grasshoppers and vultures, lions

animals in temperate grass lands include deer, mice, jack rabbits, snakes and coyotes and the endangered bison

plants in prairies include grass, sunflowers, clover

plants in savannas include umbrella and baobab trees, and elephant grass

plants have deep spread out root systems and animals are swift runners due to lack of places to hide as well as large herbivores that travel in big groups to look out for predators

found on every continent except Antarctica, Prairies or temperate grasslands are in US heartland Hungary, and South America- Savannas are found in Africa and Australia

Savanna temps are 68-86 degrees, temperate grasslands are 20-70 degrees
