The Arctic tundra is primarily inhabited by a range of specialized populations, including both flora and fauna. Key animal species include caribou, Arctic foxes, polar bears, and migratory birds, which have adapted to the harsh climate. Vegetation is limited to low-growing plants like mosses, lichens, and small shrubs, which can withstand the cold and short growing seasons. Human communities in the Arctic tundra often consist of Indigenous peoples who rely on traditional practices and sustainable hunting and fishing for their livelihoods.
The arctic tundra, alpine tundra, and antarctic tundra.
The arctic tundra, alpine tundra, and antarctic tundra.
There are 3 types of tundras, the antarctic tundra, the arctic tundra, and the alpine tundra.
There are several tundras all around the world, including the Arctic, Russia, America and Asia.

There are several types of shrubs that grow in the Arctic tundra. Some of these include the dwarf birch, white dryad, northern Labrador tea, and Arctic white heather.
Danni Skimming isnt found there!
In the arctic tundra, you can find a variety of rock types including sedimentary rocks like sandstone and shale, metamorphic rocks such as schist and gneiss, and igneous rocks like basalt and granite. These rocks have been shaped by processes like glaciation, erosion, and weathering over time.
There is obviously the Arctic fox (White Fox, Polar Fox or Snow Fox) which lives in the Arctic. However, the red fox is making "inroads" into the arctic as it is no longer predated by the Grey Wolf.
There are no biomes in the Artic Tundra because the Tundra is a biome. Just like the Desert, savanna, grasslands, tropical rainforest, coniferous forest, and deciduous forest.
yes there is there are few but there is i live in Alaska around the tundra
Tundra is a cold, treeless region with a short growing season and a layer of permafrost, or permanently frozen subsoil. Arctic tundra occurs in the Arctic region; alpine tundra is found in high mountains scattered all over the world. The temperatures are generally a little higher and the growing season longer in alpine than arctic tundra, and there are some different species of plants and animals. However, both types of tundra still have a layer of permafrost. See Tundra by Peter Moore (Chelsea House, 2006).
