EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photograph, a Northern red-backed vole (Clethrionomys rutilus) is captured in its natural habitat on the forest floor of the taiga in Siberia, Russia. The vole is named for its distinctive red fur on its back, which contrasts beautifully with the mossy, damp earth beneath its feet. This tiny mammal, with its round, plump body and short legs, is a common inhabitant of the taiga forests near rivers and streams. The scene takes place near the tributary of river Negustyah, a small waterway that flows into the larger Bolshoi Ugan. The serene and pristine environment of the Uganskii Nature Reserve provides the perfect setting for this solitary vole to thrive. The taiga forest, with its dense coniferous trees and undergrowth, is home to a variety of wildlife, including this adorable rodent. The Northern red-backed vole is an essential part of the forest ecosystem, serving as a food source for larger predators such as foxes, weasels, and owls. They are omnivores, feeding on a diet of roots, seeds, fruits, and insects. This image showcases the delicate balance of nature in the taiga forest, where even the smallest creatures play a significant role in maintaining the health and productivity of the ecosystem. The Northern red-backed vole is a fascinating and charming creature, often overlooked in the grand scheme of the natural world. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the life of this elusive mammal, allowing us to appreciate its unique beauty and significance in the vast and breathtaking taiga forest of Siberia.
