* Boreal forests: These are characterized by coniferous trees, long winters, and cool summers.
* Temperate deciduous forests: These are characterized by broad-leaved trees that lose their leaves in autumn, moderate temperatures, and distinct seasons.
* Grasslands: These are characterized by grasses and other non-woody plants, with a drier climate than forests.
They can tolerate a range of temperatures, but they prefer cooler temperatures and avoid extreme heat. They are also adept at surviving in snowy conditions.
