Few, if any, trees grow in the open spaces called grasslands. Prairies are wide, tumbling seas of grass, with tough, hardy plants that cover thick carpets of tangled roots in rich soil. Meadows spread out in lowlands, midlands, shorelands, and on mountains tops. Creatures who live on or in these grassy jungles feast on plant life , burrow in the soil, and thrive in their non-woody homes.
