Savanna Ecosystem
A community of plants and animals living in a warm, grassy region with few trees.
What is it?
The savanna ecosystem is found in Africa, South America, and Australia. It has grasses, scattered trees, and many animals. The climate is warm with a rainy season and a dry season. Animals like zebras, giraffes, lions, and Secretary Birds have adapted to this environment. The Secretary Bird is a key predator in the African savanna ecosystem.
Why it matters
Savanna ecosystems are important for biodiversity. They support many unique species that cannot live anywhere else. Protecting savannas helps preserve these animals and plants.
