Shortgrass prairie

Shortgrass prairie is a kind of place where there are not many trees or tall grasses, but mostly shorter grasses. It is like a big field where animals like deer, bison, and prairie dogs can run around and eat the grass. This place is found mostly in places where it is very dry and there isn't much rain, so the different plants and animals have had to adapt to survive. In the shortgrass prairie, you can also find snakes, insects, and birds that eat the grass or other animals. It is a special kind of place that is important to protect so that the animals and plants can continue to live there.
