You can find vast oceans of grass on every continent except Antarctica, but with its amazing variety of plant and wildlife, grasslands are much more than grass and low-lying plants.

From prairies and savannas, elephants to snakes, cottonwoods to wildflowers, every living thing plays a part in this biome community.
