The Taiga Biome's Food Web

                                             
                                               TAIGA BIOME FOOD WEB 
   A food web contains producers, consumer, primary consumer, secondary consumer, and decomposers. In the Taiga biome there  many example of food webs. In one of the food web, the producers are usually plants such as trees with pine-needles, grass ,and berries from bushes. The consumers who eats those kinds of producers are herbivores like deers, moose, and rabbits. Afterwards the secondary consumers like wolverine, snow owls, and hawks will eat the consumers, but after the secondary consumers dies it is the decomposer's job. Some examples of decomposers are sow bugs and honey fungi that would break down the dead carcass of the secondary consumer to turn it into nutrients for the producer so the cycle can start over again.

                   Dangers                                                             
There different kinds of danger causes that can easily affect the Taiga biome. Some of these causes come from natural causes or from human causes. Such as lightning, when it strikes a tree it will cause a forest fire which can burn down the whole biome, or strong wind that can blow off mosses that keeps trees warm in the cold biome, and unhealthy soil from pesticide can lead to habitat loss. Also these dangers aren't just from natural, but from human causes such as industrial forestry and logging which is the greatest threat in the Taiga biome. Animals are being hunted for their fur which decrease the population and toxic gas has from factories create population. These destruction can affect people as well, because an unhealthy forest is a unhealthy community. To help save the Taiga biome we must decrease the amount of paper and wood products.

The Producer in the Taiga Biome

             

        Evergreen Trees                                         PRODUCERS

     There are many producer found in the Taiga Biomes for examples there are the crowberry, blueberry, raspberry, Red Baneberry, Bracken Fern, Douglas Fir, Jack Pine, Balsam fir, and Lichen. Usually a producer such as the Evergreen is consume by moose and sometimes the berry bushes will get eaten by small  animals such as birds. The trees such as the the broad leaf or the birch trees have citric needles that small animals like to chew on, but some have sap which repels animals. The most common plant found is the conifer tree, which in the taiga biome has four types of conifer. Those four types are  spruces, evergreens, fir, and pine. All these producers can be able to    adapt in the cold biome. For example, the

evergreen can adapt in the taiga biome by keeping all there leaves, so the evergreen won't waste energy growing their leaves again, and they use the energy for structural growth than producing leaves. The dark green color of the evergreen absorb the sunlight and store it for photosynthesis.
