Savanna
The Savanna, or Savannah, is a biome located in Africa, Southern Asia, Northern Australia, and parts of South America. The Savanna is a warm place with average temperatures ranging from 68-78॰F in the winter and 78-86॰F in the summer. The two main seasons in the Savanna are winter, the dry season, and summer, the wet season. The winter lasts from December to February with an average of only 4 inches of rainfall. Summer, however, are the lasts through the other 9 months, with an average of 30-50 inches of rain.
The Savanna has many unique and interesting plants and animals. The soil in African Savanna's are usually has a lot of holes which helps drain water quickly during the rainy seasons. The plants get most of their energy and nutrients from thin layers of decomposed leaves, plants, animals, and other organic materials. The African Savanna is mainly made up of grasses and a small amount of trees. Weather it is strong hooves to protect the feet of the animal from the hot ground, or other adaptations, animals in this biome have adapted to live in the heat and rain of the savanna.
Humans have built many buildings and factories that take up big portions of the Savanna. By building factories and buildings the air in the Savanna is becoming polluted. Pollution is not the only issue in the savanna, however, many animals in the Savanna are becoming extinct or endangered as a result of people hunting them. Some examples include white lions, black rhinos, and many others.
