Solution

CATTLE RANCH IN THE PRAIRIES
  1. The temperate grasslands of North America are known as The Prairies. It is a region of flat or hilly land filled with grasses. The Prairies are located in parts of the US and parts of Canada.
  2. Places where rainfall is above 50 cm are fit for farming as the soil is fertile.
  3. The major crop is maize and other crops include potatoes, soybean, cotton and alfa-alfa.
  4. Grasses are short and scarce in the areas where there are irregular rainfalls. These areas are suitable for cattle rearing.
  5. Large cattle farms are called ‘ranches’ and they are supervised by strong men called ‘cowboys’.
  6. Bison or the American buffalo is the most important animal of The Prairies. This animal is about to extinct due to its careless hunting, so it is a protected species now.
  7. The other animals found in the Prairies are rabbits, coyotes, gophers and Prairie dog.
