Grasslands and Savannas

Grasslands and savannas are essential ecosystems characterized by vast open spaces dominated by grasses rather than trees. Grasslands, found in regions like North America, support a variety of wildlife, including bison and pronghorns. Savannas, which are more commonly associated with Africa, contain scattered trees and are home to iconic animals like elephants and lions. Both ecosystems play a critical role in carbon storage and provide habitat for numerous species.
