The Taiga is the northern forest of coniferous trees primarily Spruce, hemlock and fir that extends across the vast areas of Eurasia and north America. The winters are long and cold, and the don't get much rain in the summer.
Crops are large in size considering the amount of time that they have to grow.
They have many marshes lakes and ponds that are dwellings for fish frogs and other water bound creatures. The taiga receives a deep blanket of snow during the winter months, this causes the animals to adapt to their environment resulting in change in color, and food habits. The snow protects the ground from freezing allowing growth underneath it. Steep, mountainous topography, consisting of repetitive, sharply etched ridges and narrow valleys, predominates with foothills and basins also present. The bedrock is largely sedimentary in origin with minor igneous bodies.
