FAQs?
1. Why is the Amur Leopard endangered?
A: - Habitat destruction caused by wildfires which burn unattended and out of control.
- Intensive logging and clear cutting.
- Elimination of its prey, hunting both legal and illegal (poaching) have all played a role in reducing the leopards to a fragment of its former habitat.
- The Amur leopard is also being poached for its beautiful coat and for its
2. What are two abiotic and two biotic factors?
A: Abiotic - Sunlight and Water
Biotic - Evergreen Trees and Lynx
3. Does the temperature fluctuate drastically throughout the seasons?
A: Yes, It does
4. What is one important thing to know about the Taiga?
A: Soon there will not be a Taiga if humans continue to ruin their habitat
5. The Taiga has several different names as well as almost anything, can you name one?
A: The Boreal Forest

Conclusion
I think what will happen about the future of the Taiga is that Amur Leopard will become extinct. It only has a few left of them. I also think that some animals will reach the carrying capacity like fish, wolves and many more. You never know maybe the Taiga will keep getting destroyed by the fires and temperature climates. It will kill all the producers and consumers in our Taiga. But it will probably will grow back due to ashes being a decomposer to start new soil and wildlife to form again.
Summary:
Our group learned a lot about the Taiga Biome. We learned about how the Taiga Biome temperature fluctuates during the months and how it can get very cold during the winter time and how it can get very warm in the spring. We also learned about the different endangered animals and plants and how they adapt to the harsh conditions. The Taiga Biome is a wonderful place to visit, but soon we won’t have one to see since humans are cutting down the forests and trees. We need to do more protection on the Taiga Biome. This project really helped us learn and understand about ecology and how it applies to any biome around the world.
