A grassland is a biome having predominantly grasses, and some woody shrubs, instead of trees and forests. This may be due to soil conditions, low rainfall, or other factors.

Grasslands include the prairies (the Great Plains and Argentina's pampas), the steppes, and the savanna, which is a mostly dry ecosystem composed of tall grasses. Grasslands can be grassy swamps as well, such as in the Florida Everglades.

The animal life in the grasslands have adapted to the grass as a food supply, and the availability of water (often seasonal, or too little, or too much).

Grasslands are a type of flat plateau or flat land.
