Boreal Forest

Siberian Tiger

Northern Saw-Whet Owl

Some parts have subarctic climate. There's long and cold winters. Summer lasting 1-3 months, maximum 4 months. Smaller areas with oceanic climate have milder winters. The area south and in Europe/Asia west has humid continental climate which means longer summers. There are large amounts of percipitation. The soil in these regions is very fertile. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taiga http://www.thewildclassroom.com/biomes/taiga.html http://www.borealforest.org/index.php?category=ont_nw_forest&page=climate http://www.marietta.edu/~biol/biomes/boreal.htm
