La taiga

The taiga is the largest terrestrial ecosystem, crucial for global oxygen production. It faces harsh conditions with limited sunlight and extreme cold, making survival challenging. Conifers adapt by retaining needles year-round and producing resin. Despite its harshness, the taiga supports diverse wildlife, including moose, bears, and lynx. However, human activities like logging and mining pose threats, though some areas remain untouched due to isolation.
