How did buffalo contribute to the Great Plains ecosystem?
30
The buffalo stomped grass seeds into the ground with their hooves. They also loosened the dirt, allowing oxygen and rainwater to reach the roots of the grass. This grass was a source of food for animals on the plains. When buffalo died, their bodies became food not only for animals but also for the soil.
