Siberian Taiga

The Siberian Taiga is a vast forest region in Siberia, Russia, characterized by coniferous trees like spruce, fir, and pine. It is the largest forest biome in the world, spanning millions of square kilometers and playing a crucial role in the Earth's ecology. The taiga experiences long, cold winters and short summers, making it a unique habitat for wildlife such as bears, wolves, and elk. This region is vital for carbon storage, climate regulation, and supports diverse ecosystems, but it faces threats from logging, climate change, and industrial activities.
