Many animals live in the Boreal Cordillera, but the most abundant animal is moose and caribou.Some other animals that live here are Mountain Goats, Stone Sheep, Dall Sheep, Grizzly Bear, and Black Bear. The Mountain Goats live there year round, and try to avoid the snow. the Stone Sheep are found in the South, in the grasslands with rugged train.

The Boreal Cordillera 


The LocationEdit

The location of the Boreal Cordillere is in the Southern mountains of the Yukon and the Northern part of [1]the Boreal CordilleraAdded by Ref 3468Brithish Colombia. (Boreal Cordillers Ecozone)                                                                                                                                                          

The Climate Edit

The climate in the Boreal Cordillera in the West is dryer and gets less precipitation. but if you go towards the East it gets more precipitation. The temperature in the winter averages around -18 degrees Celsius, and in the short worm summers, around 10 degrees Celcius.

The LandformEdit

The landform of the Boreal Cordillera is mostly mountains and plateaus, and is seperated by lowlands and valleys.Glacier debris and deposits cover some plateaus and valleys. (boreal cordillera)

The Flora Edit

The trees that grow in the Boreal Cordillera are found in lower elevation. the higher you go the less trees grow. Thats when you can only find shrubs, moss, linchen, and herbs. Some different types of trees that grow there are white birch, water birch, scrub birch, and bebb willow. some of the plants that live there are labrador tea, mountain aven, mountain hemlock. These plants/trees need to be able to survive the cold winters and worm summers.(boreal cordillera)

The Fauna Edit

Many animals live in the Boreal Cordillera, but the most abundant animal is moose and caribou.Some other animals that live here are Mountain Goats, Stone Sheep, Dall Sheep, Grizzly Bear, and Black Bear. The Mountain Goats live there year round, and try to avoid the snow. the Stone Sheep are found in the South, in the grasslands with rugged train.

  The PeopleEdit

The population of the Boreal Cordillera is 32,244 people (Population by ecozone). In the summer, lots of tourists come to Whitehorse, which increases the population, but in the winter they all leave, so the population decreases (Human Activites).
