The Siberian Jay Is An Indicator Species of Boreal Forests

Caption

The Siberian jay is an indicator species of boreal forests, threatened by both climate change and the diminishing scope of old-growth forests. Particularly in the southern boundary of its distribution area, the logging of old forests has caused the Siberian jay to disappear from the region.
