Adaptations: The acacia and baobab trees are common in African Savannas. In order for the grasses to survive the dry season and the periodic fires, they have developed an adaptation that allows them to grow quickly when there is adequate water. Then when water becomes scarce, the grasses turn brown to limit water loss]]> 2017-12-05 14:42:03 UTC https://padlet.com/kpheiff/pheiffseylersavannahgrassland/wish/213306519 kpheiff https://padlet.com/kpheiff/pheiffseylersavannahgrassland/wish/213310629  Bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon) is a plant that is grown as a turfgrass or as forage for livestock, but it also can be an invasive weed

Long, retractable claws help lions snare their prey, while rough tongues make it easy for them to peel back the skin of that prey and expose its meat. Lions primarily hunt hoofed animals, such as zebras and wildebeest, so they have developed loose skin on their bellies that protects them from the frantic kicks of their prey.
