Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The savanna is a biome characterized by grassy plains with scattered trees and is home to a diverse array of hoofed mammals, such as zebras, giraffes, and antelopes. This habitat is conducive to the hunting of multiple species within a day's walk of a single camp. The other biomes listed, such as the tropical rainforest, chaparral, and desert, are less likely to support such a variety of hoofed mammals within close proximity of each other.
