Why do humans negatively impact such a beautiful biome? Humans have destroyed many square miles of grasslands. Farmers go to the grassland for more rich soil. And they also use the long grass for food for raising cattle. Some come to the grassland is used to hunt animals for valuable body parts. Such as an elephant hunters hunt them for there tusks therefore many animals are dying. Why do humans destroy grasslands? Humans are doing some good things to the grassland. The government put 1 % of the grasslands where nobody can farm or hunt this area. Many animals are living now and there is a lot more grass in this area. There is still a lot of hunters in the grasslands but not in this area. Many of these animals were close to extinction but they are no longer close. Human Impact
