The larger animals may eat smaller fish or like whales they eat plankton: the small and microscopic organisms drifting or floating in the sea or freshwater, consisting chiefly of diatoms, protozoans, small crustaceans, and the eggs and larval stages of larger animals. Many animals are adapted to feed on plankton, especially by filtering the water. There are different types of animals that eat different things, most of the ocean fish usually eat each other, as well as crustaceans such as shrimp, and crabs. Fish also eat kelp, algae, and plankton, as well as cephalopods such as squid and octopus and also echinoderms such as sea urchins. Are these animals Omnivores, Carnivores or herbivores?

The summers are generally short but are humid, warm and never last more than four months. In much of the taiga, -20 °C would be an average winter day temperature and 18 °C an average summer day temperature with average annual temperatures at 3°C. In some parts of the Taiga such as the Alaska-Yukon area the annual temperatures could be as low as -10°C due to the extended winters. Precipitation is generally low in the Taiga and the majority is summer rain, in all: there is 400mm to 600mm of precipitation per year to the west and eastward it gradually falls to 200mm a year.…
