Much of the United States grasslands have been destroyed to be turned into farm land.
Temperate grasslands typically exist in the middle of deserts and forests. They act as a transitional biome.
Most grasslands get 10-30 inches of rain every year. It mostly rains in the late spring and early summer.
The amount of rainfall determines the height of grasses in the grassland.
They have some of the world's richest soils. The rich soil is ideal for farming and grazing. It is also why massive herds of large mammals were and are found in this biome.
Droughts play a large role in the grassland, they keep trees from taking over grasslands.
There are almost no trees in the temperate grassland.
