Succession

If the Savanna had a large spread forest fire it would bring about many problems, first of all being food limitation. With the vegetation in the area being burnt down, the plant eating animals will not be able to get the food they need. This just creates a chain, because later the bigger animals who eat meat will not be getting the food they need. There would be a smaller population. But those plants that do survive will most likely produce more offspring that may just happen to be resistant to fire. This will allow the animals to begin to populate more because their food supply would begin to rise again.
