About a quarter of the earth is comprised of grasslands. The grassland biome exists in every continent, apart from Antartica. Grassland biomes are made up of great, rolling tracts of land comprising of grasses, herbs and flowers. Grassland biomes are of two types: The Prairies - areas that are humid and wet, where tall grass grows; and Steppe Grassland - areas that are dry, with colder winters and hotter summers, where short grass grows.The steppe grasslands, which is nearest the equator, is hot all through the year. The grasslands that are located farther away from the equator, like the prairies in the United States, known as temperate grasslands, have more varied temperatures, being hot in the summer and extremely cold in the winter.
