Adding About:

The taiga is a forest of the cold, subarctic region.

The subarctic is an area of the Northern Hemisphere that lies just south of the Arctic Circle.

The taiga lies between the tundra (also a type of vegetation region) to the north and temperate forests to the south.

Alaska, Canada, Scandinavia, and Siberia (in Russia) have taigas.
