Animals and Vegetation in East Africa - Masai Mara Kenya 2014 - A low, rough termite mound rises from short green grass in bright sunlight. The mound is made of packed soil with small chimney-like peaks and an uneven, crumbly texture. It appears to be a thriving colony, actively expanding its structure. This mound is a nest built by termites, with tunnels and chambers below the surface. Termites feed mainly on dead plant material such as dry grass and wood, and they help break it down and recycle nutrients back into the soil, playing a vital role in the savanna ecosystem. Species common name: Termite Family: Termitidae Scientific name: Termitidae spp.
