African Savanna.... NO Thanks!

The African Savanna is the largest grassland in the world. The Savanna covers more than half of Africa. They survive by hunting game and eating honey, fruits and vegetables. Most of the Maasai raise cattle, sheep and goats for meat. The cattle provide milk and meat and leather for clothing. The cattle also produces dung which is used to help build homes. The Maasai live in groups of 10 to 20 huts, which are made branches, grass, mud and twigs. The women of the tribe find water and build homes and the men heard the cattle. The Savanna is much more peaceful and the "police" don't force children to go to school. Would love to have the choice to go to school.

    By the way you forgot to add a hyperlink. But back on topic I would also love to have the choice of going to school. African savanna has a greater variety of large animals than anywhere in the world. It also covers a wide range of land, about half the area of a continent. Did you know that savannas cover 20% of the globe and the largest area of savanna is in Africa? The plants have to have long tap roots that can reach the deep water table, thick bark to resist annual fires, trunks that can store water, and leaves that drop of during the winter to conserve water.
