REGION
OBSERVATION FROM THE VIRTUAL BIOMES:
Abundant grasses, including both tall and short varieties like big bluestem and buffalo grass, dominate
the landscape. Trees are notably scarce, creating vast, open vistas with extensive grassy plains.
Seasonal changes are evident, with grasses transitioning from lush green in spring and summer to a
more subdued brown in the fall and winter. Scattered throughout the virtual grassland, various
wildflowers and forbs provide colorful accents to the landscape and support pollinators. Herbivores such
as bison, antelope can be observed grazing on the grasses as they forage for food. A diverse array of bird
species, soaring above and others perched on the grasses. Occasional prairie streams or small creeks
are visible in certain areas, providing vital water sources for the grassland's wildlife. Signs of past fires,
including charred vegetation, indicate fire adaptation, where some species rely on periodic fires for their
life cycles. Human activities are evident in parts of the virtual grassland, with features like fences, roads,
and farming equipment underscoring the impact of human presence. The most striking feature of this
virtual grassland is its vast, open horizons, providing unobstructed views of distant landscapes and the
expansive sky above
