2. The Australian Savanna is in two very different
seasons: the "wet" and the "dry". The dry season
lasts 5 to 6 months, usually from May to October.
The wet season lasts 5 to 6 months and lasts from
December to March. The Australian tropical
savanna is found along the north coast of
Australia at a range of 10° to 20° South.

3. Usually only grass grows in the savanna, with
some scattered trees. If there was no dry season,
trees would populate the savanna. Trees do not
densely populate them since they need too much
water. Because in the dry season it doesn't rain,
trees can only grow in the wet season.

4. To survive the dry season, plants have grown
long roots to suck all the moisture out of the
ground. They grow thick bark to protect
themselves from fires. Their trunks can store
water, and the leaves that drop off during the dry
season to hold water.

5. Australia:
Australian savanna is called the bush it has lots of
trees and wildlife because it is a tropical savanna.
Africa:
The savanna covers 2 fifth of Africa from 15 ° Celsius
north and 30 ° Celsius south. The savanna covers
Guinea, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Cote D'ivore, Ghana,
Togo, Benin, Nigeria,, Central African Republic,,
Sudan, Ethiopia, Somalia, and the Democratic
Republic of the Congo, Chad, Angola, Uganda,
Rwanda, Burundi, Kenya, Tanzania, Camaroon,
Malawi, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Mozambique and
Botswana

6. Tanzania

North-East of it around Brazil Columbia and

7. Cheetah
A cheetah is a large sized feline that roams mostly in
Africa but some have been found in the middle east. It is
the by far the fastest animal alive at average running up to
20 kilometres and in short bursts can cover 500 metres if
ground it has the ability to run from 0 km to 100 km in

The African elephant is a one of the two different
types of elephants in the savanna they feed on
almost every plant in the savanna. The are very
social and friendly animals and stay in groups of

Because of the elephants being large it makes it
hard for lions and cheetahs to feast on it.
