H. Savannahs 1. Climate and definition a. Tropical grassland ranging from dry scrubland to wet open woodland b. As much as 150 cm of rain per year all falling during a short rainy season c. Found in Asia, India, and Africa 1. Called Llanos and campos in South America

2. Organisms a. Plants 1. Many use runners- long horizontal stems underground a. Used to reproduce b. Protected from fire 2. Grasses grow in tufts- clumps of tall coarse grasses 3. Protected by thorns or sharp leaves 4. Grow fast

b. Animals 1. Because of water, they are migratory 2. Reproduce during the rainy season 3. To avoid competition animals eat a different levels in the trees a. Called a vertical feeding pattern
