The word "tundra" is the English form of a Finnish word "tunturia" that means treeless land. Tundra are regions of the Earth where frost covers the land through the year. Tundra has its own typical plant and animal life. Its greenery is poor and meager. Its animals are built for the lashing cold. It's a land of freezing winds. If you spend a whole day in tundra, you can thank your stars if you manage to come back without frostbite. That is tundra.
There are two types of tundra in the world: the arctic and the alpine. The arctic tundra spreads from the cold polar regions of the north into places like Alaska and Siberia. Arctic fox, arctic hare, snowy owl, and in general most animals whose names start with arctic, polar, or snowy, can be found in an arctic tundra. There is very little greenery. Lichens and mosses, shrubs and grasses mark the landscape there. The alpine tundra lies on and near the snow covered tops of high mountains. Dwarf trees and small shrubs can be found in the alpine tundra. Mountain animals, like mountain goats and sheep may also be found there.
