A savanna plateau[a] is a variant of the savanna biome that replaces it at higher elevations. The biome features spotted wolves unlike the regular savanna, and lacks villages and pillager outposts.

Description

A savanna plateau is found when a savanna generates on top of a plateau or beneath a stony mountain. Due to its low erosion value, the deep dark can generate underneath this biome.

Savanna plateaus are identical to the regular savanna, sharing its grassy landscape covered with acacia trees, small oak trees and both short grass and tall grass, as well as its arid climate, which prevents proper rainfall from happening within the biome. Leaves and grass take on a dry olive-green color. A distinguishing feature of this biome compared to regular savannas is the absence of villages and pillager outposts.[1]

Altogether, the biome features a greater variety of animals compared to its counterpart: farm animals spawn like normal, with chickens, pigs and cows generating their warm variants, and horses, sheep, donkeys and armadillos still spawn on the plateaus. A key difference, however, include the presence of spotted wolves, which spawn in savanna plateaus only. Llamas spawn in both the regular savanna and the savanna plateau biomes in Bedrock Edition, while in Java Edition, llamas spawn in the savanna plateau only.[2]
