La prairie permanente est un couvert végétal herbacé installé depuis de nombreuses années. Elle est caractérisée par une grande richesse d'espèces végétales spontanées en équilibre écologique sous l'effet conjoint du milieu des pratiques agricoles. Ces dernières sont indispensables pour sa pérennité (fertilisation, pâturage et fauche).

Plusieurs espèces de félins, maintenant disparues, ont proliféré en Amérique du Nord durant la dernière ère glaciaire. On distingue parmi ceux-ci le chat des cavernes (Homotherium serum), le tigre à dents de sabre (Smilodon fatalis) et le lion d'Amérique (Panthera leo atrox). Grâce à leur vitesse, leur agilité, leurs mâchoires puissantes et leurs dents aiguisées comme des rasoirs, ces félins pouvaient s'attaquer à des animaux beaucoup plus gros qu'eux, tels que des bisons, des chevaux et de jeunes mammouths. 2, record 3, French, - f%C3%A9lin%20%C3%A0%20dents%20de%20sabre
