About the habitat: Scrublands
Scrublands are terrestrial habitats dominated by low-growing shrubs, grasses, and hardy plants adapted to dry conditions. These environments are commonly found in regions with seasonal rainfall, such as Mediterranean climates, semi-arid zones, and coastal hills.Scrubland habitats support a wide variety of wildlife, including reptiles, birds, small mammals, and insects. Many species are specially adapted to withstand drought, heat, and fire, making scrublands resilient yet ecologically important ecosystems.
