Imayamba moyo ndi thunthu lolimba pansi, koma limazimirira ndipo limasinthidwa kwathunthu ndi milu yochokera ku mizu.
Mapeto
Vuto lalikulu kwambiri lomwe likukumana ndi zamoyo zonse m'chipululu ndi mvula yosagwirizana. Kutengera ndi dera, savanna imalandira masentimita 50 mpaka 120 mvula pachaka. Ngakhale izi zikuwoneka zokwanira, kumagwa miyezi isanu ndi umodzi mpaka isanu ndi itatu. Koma mkati mwa chaka chonse, nthaka imakhala pafupifupi youma kwambiri.
Choyipa chachikulu, zigawo zina zimangolandira mvula yokwana 15cm, kuwapangitsa kukhala ochereza pang'ono kuposa zipululu. Tanzania ili ndi nyengo ziwiri zamvula yokhala ndi miyezi pafupifupi iwiri pakati pawo. M'nyengo yadzuwa, nyengo imakhala yowuma kwambiri kotero kuti moto wanthawi zonse ndi gawo lofunikira m'chipululu.
