Mountainous Vegetation is a Biome that has mountains. This biome is found all over the world. They are usually at an altitude of 10,000 feet if not more. But they often vary in size.
In summer the average temperature ranges from 10° to 15°C. In winter it gets extremely cold and the weather is below freezing. The summer season lasts from June to September and the winter season usually lasts from October to May. But the weather can also change very quickly it can go from warm to freezing in less than one day.
Because of the changing weather conditions plants and animals in these areas have had to adapt to the cold, and warm weather. There are only about 200 species of plants in these areas as they are so high up and have very little Carbon Dioxide which plants need to be able to breath and live.
The animals that live in this biome vary depending on where they are located but some animals that live in these biomes are Chinchilla's, Birds, Snow Leopard's and Mountain Goats.
