The biome I found most interesting is the savanna biome. The savanna biome has a lot of animal life and it is very dry. There are many movies and documentaries based off of Africa and the savannas. That is why my paper will focus on this biome. Biomes are ecosystems that make up the Earth’s surface. Biomes are large communities of animals and plants.
