The Ecosystem of African Savanna

The African savanna is a large open spaced area with a lot of trees and grass. Many varieties of animals such as lions, cheetahs, leopards, hyenas, antelopes, gazelles, elephants, giraffes, zebras, monkeys, etc live there. The grass and the trees are called producers, which are the organisms that get food by themselves from the sun. The food chain in the savanna is; the lion, which is the tertiary consumer, at the top, the zebras, antelopes and other primary consumers, that eat plants and gets eaten by the lions, are at the middle, and the plants or producers are at the bottom.
