African Plain
The African Plain refers to vast grassland areas found across the continent, particularly in regions like the Serengeti in Tanzania and the Masai Mara in Kenya. These plains are characterized by open spaces, scattered trees, and a rich diversity of wildlife, including iconic species such as elephants, lions, and zebras. The climate is typically warm with distinct wet and dry seasons, supporting a variety of ecosystems.
These plains play a crucial role in the life cycles of many animals, especially during the Great Migration, when millions of wildebeest and other herbivores travel in search of food and water. The African Plain is also vital for local communities, providing resources for agriculture and tourism, which are essential for economic development.
