Biomes In The Savanna Forest
A man on a mission to make it back home after being stranded in a different region of Pangaea, which is a piece of land that incorporates many terrestrial biomes. He doesn’t know how he ended up there but he knew exactly where he was headed. His methods of survival were clear and he was able to make a few friends along the way. Throughout this journey from an unknown place to his home and family he traveled through 3 different terrestrial biomes. The biomes of Pangaea are similar to the ones known in our current world today but they’re in odd pairs. He traveled through the Savanna Forest, the Desert Chaparral and the Grassland Tundra. Within the Savanna Forest there are the typical characteristics of a savanna and a forest, specifically a tropical forest. Therefore the Savanna Forest has many tall canopy trees and a bunch of different species of animals within the middle but around the border …show more content…
With all of his injuries the man was very weak and the effects of the extreme desert he was entering caused him to hallucinate and become extremely dehydrated. The lost man was losing his mind more and more the further he got into the extreme desert; however, he was still getting closer to the more manageable chaparral biome. At the middle of the Desert Chaparral, where the extreme desert and the chaparral meet, the lost man was too weak to move any further because he was dehydrated. However, as soon as he began to see the light a wild jackrabbit came to the rescue. The jackrabbit was from the chaparral part of the biome and he saw the man struggling and decided to help. After the man gained his composure, he followed the jackrabbit out of the Desert Chaparral. The rest if that journey was smooth sailing cause they went through the windward side of the chaparral biome rain

He believes that if a person keeps moving, the temperature doesn’t matter and it won’t effect the journey other than a hinderance of moving.

    The natural vegetation regions and soil regions are interconnected in numerous ways. Soil regions as the Tundra soils, or dry climate soils have the potential to affect the type of vegetation that can be grown. Where you would find cold temperatures as the Tundra, you can expect limited vegetation to grasses, mosses, and shrubs. Because the ground has an active layer of permafrost, growing conditions are not suitable for plants and trees. Areas with moist soil as the wet-climate regions, you are expected to find trees and plants resembling the mixed forests, boreal and taiga forest, as well the deciduous forests. The Grasslands are located in the dry climate soils situated in the Prairie Provinces. Due to the dry temperatures there are very insufficient amount of trees, and consisting of large rolling terrains of grasses. To conclude location is a dependent factor on the type of vegetation a region will come to…

    Some common animals include elephants, giraffes, zebras, rhinoceros, buffalo, lions, leopards, kangaroos, ostriches and cheetahs. The climate factors have led to an open landscape with widely spaced trees. Many of the animals that live in savannas rely on speed for survival. For others camouflaging is better. The open areas of the savanna provide little means of escape from quick predators so they need a way to survive. There are a number of exotic plant species found in the savannas around the world today. Among the wood plant species are Prickly Acacia, Rubbervine, Mesquite, Lantana, and Prickly Pear. Many herbaceous species have also been found through the savannas. Some include Buffel grass, Giant rat's tail grass, stylos, and other…

    After several days and nights the desert began to become hotter and we lost track of time. As we were walking along under the stars in dark of the night I tripped over a rock and fell towards the ground with a splash. The cool liquid surrounded my dry skin as a feeling of joy spread throughout my body. “Water!” I shouted back to the others. Smiles spread across the group as they jumped into the pool of water. Everyone drank and ate berries from the surrounding bushes until we could eat no more. As we sat around a fire that James had created the conversation of how much more walking we could take came up.…

    The air was chilly, and a thin cloud of fog was drifting on the forest floor. The journey back thrilled me until I realized how uneventful it would be. The excitement of running forward to find the biggest trees and rocks had gone, because we were walking back the same way we came. Every turn brought a rock or giant tree I had already seen and climbed on. Thus, I took to trudging along ahead of everyone else, disappointed in the turn out of the day. Indulging myself in picking up colorful rocks was the only way that helped pass time. The day seemed to last forever as we hiked back, and I was becoming increasingly bored. It was at this point when I was sauntering along that I found a concealed shortcut. We were approaching a river, and there was a hidden trail off to the left that couldn’t be seen from the other direction. Interested, I decided to investigate this separate path. I emerged from around a bush to see a log stretching across the expanse of the river. My curiosity had paid off and I knew what to do next. Walking over, I questioned whether or not it was such a smart idea, then ignoring it continued. The log was covered in moss and appeared to be a little damp, making it a challenge I was determined to defeat. Shuffling forward, I slowly made my way across. I had almost reached the end when a shout emitted from behind me. My brother had finally caught up and…
