Human Influence


Humans influence the savannas’ in many different ways. One way humans influence the savannas is that they burn down the high grass so they can see animals when they hunt but it is illegal. 

“Human induced land use change has a greater effect on savanna structure and NPP than any other environmental changes. Savannas generally have low human population density as their capacity to support intensive agriculture and livestock grazing are poor; however, population pressure and land-use changes are likely to be greater here than in other biomes over the coming decades.” Says J.I. House and D.O. Hall from human influence.
