Wildlife in Taiga

Creatures of the taiga "Goddess of the Sikhote-Alin Mountains" In the Sikhote-Alin Mountains, where the Amur Tiger roams, there are four species of butterflies in the genus Parnassius, including Parnassius nomion culutensis. Parnassius is an ancient species of Swallowtail Butterfly that has survived since the Ice Age. Apart from the white Parnassius stubbendorfii honnei, the three crimson-crested Parnassius species are very localized and rarely seen unless guided by an expert. Moreover, their habitat is small, limited to grasslands measuring 500 meters square or grasslands along mountain streams about 1 kilometer wide. It is a precious small space that has been preserved exactly as it has been since ancient times during the Ice Age. Every time I admire Parnassius dancing here and there in the bright sunlight, I surrender myself to eternity and spend a blissful time.
