Temperate+Grassland

** Welcome to the Grasslands! There are two types of grasslands: tropical grasslands and temperate grasslands. We will focus on the temperate grasslands. Many animals live in temperate grasslands. It depends on the area that the grassland is located. There are not many trees in the temperate grasslands. The temperature can get to be 100˚f. Temperate Grasslands can also get 20 to 35 inches of rain each year, and most of that is snow. With very cold winters it is surprising how hot the summers can get. Fires can also occur in the temperate grasslands. These fires are usually set by lightning or human activity. **
