there is not much wild life, knowing how cold it is and the length of time the cold weather is there
mountian goats stay all year round from there puffy warm fur to there great climbing ability's they are the ideal animal to live here
there are no reptiles living here,because they have no way to produce heat and will die of the cold
most animals that live here are carnivores, because there is not much plants that grow in this cold,snowy place
