The Arctic Tundra

A vast, cold, and treeless biome found in the Arctic regions.
Key Features: Frozen ground (permafrost), low-growing plants like mosses and shrubs, and animals with thick, warm coats.

💡 Fun Facts

  • In the tundra, the ground beneath the surface, called permafrost, stays frozen all year round, sometimes to a depth of nearly a mile.
  • During the summer, the sun shines 24 hours a day, but it is not strong enough to melt the deep permafrost.
  • Animals like the Arctic fox and ptarmigan have coats that turn white in winter to camouflage them against the snow.
