The Shattered Plains has a large variety of plants and animals, the most dangerous of which is its apex predator: the chasmfiend. However, [[Shallan Davar]] believes the Alethi have hunted chasmfiends nearly to extinction for their enormous [[gemheart]]s.{{book ref|sa3|50}}
The climate is moister than it is in the west. Plants have a tendency not to pull into their shells as swiftly after a storm.{{book ref|sa1|23}} Clouds are less frequent; alternating between sun and highstorms.{{book ref|sa3|58}} Outside the warcamps, [[rockbud]]s, [[knobweed]],{{book ref|sa1|23}} flowering [[branzah]],{{book ref|sa1|17}} [[prickletac]],{{book ref|sa1|17}} pink and purple [[fingermoss]],{{book ref|sa1|57}} and other grasses are known to grow. Due to the harsh weather, the grasses near the Shattered Plains are typically yellow in color and only grow to 6-10 inches in height.{{book ref|sa3|5}}
During Shallan's travels to the Shattered Plains, she notices feral [[axehound]]s, small eels living in ponds, and white trees with red leaves.{{book ref|sa2|30}} There is also a small, tentacled, animal that lives in pools near the warcamps, called a [[grasper]].{{book ref|sa1|57}}
