Grasslands are areas of land dominated by grasses and other herbaceous plants, and are found on every continent except Antarctica, covering about 25% of the Earth's land surface. Grasslands provide habitats for a variety of animals, including large grazing mammals such as bison and antelope. These animals help to maintain the grassland ecosystem by eating vegetation and dispersing seeds. The soils in they can generally nutrient-rich, making them ideal for agriculture. In addition to providing food and shelter for wildlife, it also play an important role in carbon sequestration, helping to reduce atmospheric carbon dioxide levels. Grassland management practices such as controlled burning can help to maintain healthy ecosystems while still allowing for human activities like grazing or farming.
