Sammy's First Aid Kit
The Amazing African Savannah
Why hello there, my name is Sammy Wild. Today on Wild Adventures I will be traveling to the beautiful, scorching hot African Savannah. Did you know that in the African Savannah the climate range can vary from 68 degrees to 86 degrees, that's why very it's very common to get sunburned. And that the African Savannah only gets about 10 to 30 inches of rain a year? The African Savannah is home to many unique and interesting animals such as vicious carnivores like lions, cheetahs, leopards, and even crocodiles. There are herbivores like Giraffes, zebras, elephants, rhinoceros, hippopotamuses, and baboons. The African Savannah is made up of mainly grasslands and is surrounded by many countries in Africa such as, Uganda, Angola, The Democratic Republic of the Congo, Somalia, Ethiopia, Sudan, Chad, Central African Republic, Cameroon, Nigeria, Benin, Togo, Ghana, Cote D'Ivoire, Liberia, Leon, Rwanda, Burundi, Kenya, Tanzania, Malawi, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Botswana, and South Africa. Even though the African Savannah is filled with many grasslands there still are many cool attractions like Eco travel Africa Wildlife parks, African Safaris, Sabona wildlife reserve, Kakadu National park, and Zambia- the real Africa. I’m so excited for this amazing trip to the African Savannah, but I almost forgot.
