Cerrado, UNESCO World Heritage savanna in central Brazil.
The Cerrado spans 1.9 million square kilometers across eight Brazilian states, containing grasslands, forests, wetlands, and numerous water sources for South American rivers.
Until the 1960s, this region maintained its natural state, but agricultural development transformed extensive areas into farmland for soybean production and cattle ranching.
Indigenous communities in the Cerrado developed specific techniques for managing the land through controlled burns, shaping the current vegetation patterns.
The dry season extends from May to September, while the wet season runs from October to April, with temperatures ranging between 22 and 27 degrees Celsius.
This savanna houses 10,000 plant species and 800 bird species, including the giant armadillo, maned wolf, and red-legged seriema.
