Large predators like lions and leopards thrive in savanna grasslands due to the abundant prey and diverse ecosystems that support their hunting and social behaviors. In contrast, desert ecosystems have limited food resources and harsh environmental conditions, making it difficult for large predators to find sufficient prey and sustain their energy needs. Additionally, the lack of cover in deserts reduces hunting success and increases vulnerability to heat stress. Consequently, these factors contribute to the scarcity of large predators in desert environments.
