Flooded Grasslands

Flooded grasslands are found on the four continents of the world; Europe, Asia, Americas, and Africa.The flooded grasslands are home to a variety of animals ranging from migratory birds such as flamingos, and pelicans to land animals like wildebeest and Chinese Water Deer. The flooded grasslands have two main seasons, the wet and the dry. During wet seasons the temperature can range from 70 to 90 degrees, and during the dry season temperatures can range from 80 to 100 degrees. When you look at a flooded grasslands during the wet season there are formations of small ponds of watering holes, for the animals that come to that area. During the dry season there is tall grass and brush. There are many types of plants and animals the range across the four different continents. In Africa there are Wild Dogs, Wildebeest, Gazelles, and Jackals. In Asia there are Chinese Water Deer, Goose-foot, and Dalmatian Pelicans. In the Americans there are plants like Saw-grass and white water Lily.

The flooded grasslands hold an importance to our ecosystem. Without them there would be loss of thousands of species of animals . The loss of these grasslands will cause devastation across all the continents. With the loss of these habitats there would be less space for these majestic animals because humans would develop on these lands and cause unwanted interactions between man and nature.
