Alpine

Vicuñas live at altitudes of 3,200 to 4,800 m (10,500-15,700 ft)

The mountain weasel (Mustela altaica), also known as the pale weasel, Altai weasel or solongoi, primarily lives in high-altitude environments, as well as rocky tundra and grassy woodlands.

It also occurs in farmlands, savannas, open savanna mosaics, and alpine areas.

current range is limited to seven isolated mountain ranges

It is endemic to the alpine regions of Tasmania's southwest and Central Highlands

native to mountainous habitats in Europe

lives in temperate and alpine forests

Alpine meadow and high elevation steppe are the primary habitats of the goa.

Takin are found from forested valleys to rocky, grass-covered alpine zones, at altitudes between 1,000 and 4,500 m (3,300 and 14,800 ft) above sea level.

Their habitat consists of a mixture of high altitude steppe, alpine meadows, and regions of semidesert.

It prefers temperate deciduous forest, but also lives in broad-leaved or subalpine coniferous forest made up of Japanese beech, Japanese oak, alpine meadow, and coniferous plantations.

O. dalli live in mountainous alpine habitats distributed across northwestern British Columbia, the Yukon, Northwest Territories and Alaska.

Endemic to the Tibetan Plateau, the Tibetan antelope inhabits open alpine and cold steppe environments between 3,250 and 5,500 m (10,660 and 18,040 ft) elevation.

It inhabits the Himalayan alpine meadows and rocky slopes across Bhutan, China, India, Myanmar, Nepal, and Pakistan, typically at altitudes of 2,200-5,500 m (7,200-18,000 ft).

largely adapted to polar and mountainous habitats in the Palearctic realm

It is found in plains and prairie and in alpine meadows with scattered coniferous trees

in alpine scrublands surrounding four volcanoes

found in the grassland, shrubland, and forest habitats, at high altitudes

where precipitation does not fall below 1400 mm per year in alpine areas

found primarily in rainforest, wet scrub, eucalyptus scrub, sedgeland, and low alpine vegetation

found in montane moss forests and in alpine zones over 2,000 m

it inhabits alpine meadows

Hoary marmots occupy areas with rocky talus slopes and alpine tundra vegetation

is found mostly in the talus slopes and sub-alpine forests at elevations from 2,300

Arctic ground squirrels inhabit arctic and tundra habitats at northern latitudes and higher elevations, and boreal forest and alpine meadows at lower latitudes and elevations

Columbian ground squirrels are found in alpine and sub-alpine meadows.

They inhabit steppe country and alpine meadows, between 800 and 2,900 metres (2,600 and 9,500 ft) elevation.

Talus slopes in Alpine tundra with herbaceous forage

The black-capped marmot lives in arctic tundra and alpine habitats from near sea-level to an altitude of 2,000 m (6,600 ft).

It lives on the steppe and in foothills and alpine meadows.

These animals are most abundant at higher altitudes, occurring in alpine and subalpine meadows.

The Himalayan marmot lives in short grass steppes or alpine habitats, typically above the tree line but below the permanent snow limit.

including alpine meadows, foothill to highland steppes, semi-deserts, scrublands and open woodland

Within the park, Olympic marmots inhabit lush sub-alpine and alpine meadows, fields, and montane scree slopes.

Bighorn sheep inhabit alpine meadows, grassy mountain slopes, and foothill country near rugged, rocky cliffs and bluffs.

They may be found in a variety of habitats including rainforest, eucalyptus forest, woodland, alpine grassland, and coastal areas.

In India, Myanmar, Indochina, Indonesia and China, it prefers forested areas in alpine zones and is occasionally sighted in plains regions.

Alpine marmots prefer alpine meadows and high-altitude pastures, where colonies live in deep burrow systems situated in alluvial soil or rocky areas.

The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) red list of threatened species includes one mayfly: Tasmanophlebia lacuscoerulei, the large blue lake mayfly, which is a native of Australia and is listed as endangered because its alpine habitat is vulnerable to climate change.

They mostly occur in warm areas with suitable moist locations for breeding, but also occupy a wide range of habitats from deserts to alpine meadows.

Suitable habitat includes blue oak (Quercus douglasii) savanna, gray pine-oak forest (Pinus sabiniana-Quercus spp.), mixed conifer forest, and alpine meadows.

a prostrate ground-hugging shrub; leaves short, 3-8 mm; cones often larger, 7-12 mm, usually longer than the leaves; found in subarctic areas and high altitude alpine zones in temperate areas subsp. alpina var. alpina, Greenland, Europe and Asia subsp. alpina var. megistocarpa Fernald & H.St.John, Eastern Canada (doubtfully distinct from var. alpina) subsp. alpina var. jackii

In some areas, it also occurs in alpine habitats, along mountain streams.

It's most common in alpine tundra with a relatively thick carpet of grasses and sedges rather than the more barren steppe country.

sinensis generally live 15 cm (5.9 in) underground in alpine grass and shrub-lands on the Tibetan Plateau and the Himalayas at an altitude between 3,000 and 5,000 m (9,800 and 16,400 ft).
