 West coast of the United States  West coast of South America  Cape Town South Africa  Western Tip of Australia  Coastal areas of the Mediterranean

 Winter-mild and moist not rainy  Summer-hot and dry  Usually mild but can get very hot or nearly freezing  Temperature ranges between 30 and 100 degrees F  Only gets inches of rain during the winter

 Less than a meter tall  Relatively shrubby  Desert like plants  Many are annuals Perennial forms tend to have evergreen leaves  Flowering briefly after winter rains  If caught on fire will burn fast  Some are fire resistance either by underground roots or thick heavy bark

 Nutrient poor  Factor of humans changing their biome to fit their needs  Thin soil  Bare rock  clay

 Mainly grass land and desert types adapted to hot weather  Coyotes  Jack rabbits  mule deer  Alligator lizards  Horned toads  Praying mantis, honey bees, and lady bugs  In Europe: wild goats, sheep, cattle, mouflon, horses, lynx, wild boar, rabbits, vultures, and eagles  Many small mammals

 Thick bark  Fire resistant  After burned the perennial forbs survive underground  Resin closes pine cones to protect the seeds  Fauna don’t need a lot of water  Have adapted to the hot and dry weather  Some seeds need the heat to sprout

 Most are small and nocturnal  Dig burrows to stay cool  Plants have small waxy leaves that hold water

 They hold highly flammable oils  Burn out every years  Important crops in the area are olives and grapes  Has more than one name (Mediterranean biome)  The seeds of some plants will stay dormant until a fire comes  Chaparral biome is the smallest biome

 Start fires  Many parts of the region were lost to cities and farms  Animals were chased away in which many died  National parks and game preservation areas have been established  The parks are trying to save endangered species in the area  An example of the animals that have been affected by humans are lions and quagga

 Tourist Destination Tourist Destination

 How many years does it take for the plants to burn out?  What two animals have we mainly affected?  What are the two most important crops?  What kind of plants are there in the Chaparral biome?  Where are two places that this biome is located?

 What are in the plants leaves  Are there small or large mammals in the Chaparral  Where is it located at  How often do they burn out  Is the chaparral the largest or smallest biome
