Trees in the savanna habitat are adapted to survive in an environment with seasonal rainfall and frequent fires.

• Thick, corky bark: Protects the trees from damage caused by fire and helps conserve water during the dry season.
• Large, leathery leaves: More characteristic of rainforest trees to capture sunlight in low-light environments.
• Straight, slender stems with branches near the top: Typical of trees in a denser environment.
• Thin, smooth barks: Not common in the savanna because they offer less protection from fire.
