Steppe Grasslands
The Steppe Grasslands of the Northern Lowlands , meanwhile, are composed of drought-resistant, short-grass species that have been adapted to the region's semi-arid climate. These grasslands, which are punctuated by small, scattered stands of hardy shrubs and trees, support a unique assemblage of Martian wildlife, including the Steppe Pronghorn, a fleet-footed, antelope-like creature that has become a popular target for eco-tourists and wildlife enthusiasts.
