Savanna is a grassland with scattered individual trees. Savannas of one sort or another cover almost half the surface of Africa (about five million square miles, generally Central Africa) and large areas of Australia, South America, etc.
Savanna is home to large herds of grazing wildlife and predators that follow them. It is a carefully balanced ecosystem that can be easily be disturbed by changes in climate, an imbalance in the number and type of wildlife, and human influences such as farming and cattle herding. Fire also has an important role in the Savanna, burning out old grass and new tree saplings, making way for the new grasses.
Acacia and bush willows are the most common Savanna trees.
There are many types of grasses in Savanna such as Rhodes grass, red oats grass, and lemon grass.
Temperatures throughout the summer season in Savanna remain above 80°F.
