Human activities
In the prairies, there are 2 main jobs: Farming and Mining.
Because the prairies consist of so much farmland, they can grow large amounts of crops within the area.
This means that they need a large number of farmers to maintain the area, and once the crops are ready to pick, farmers will need to gather the crops.

Mining is also a main job in the prairies.
This is because of the amount of oil and natural resources found in their land.
The prairies are a part of the interior plains which is right next to the Canadian shield.
When the Canadian shield was being formed, it deposited sediments of the shield into the water. With pressure, the sediments turned into sedimentary rock which became the interior plains.
While this land was building up, dead fish, plants and other animals decomposed, and were compressed into the land. This then created natural resources such as oil, and fossil fuels that are now found within the land of the prairies.
Though mining, people are able to dig up these natural resources to be able to use them for different things. This means that they will need lots of miners to help dig up the resources, and to also collect them.
