Siberians

Residents of taiga

Siberians are people from Siberia, the vast region of Russia stretching from the Ural Mountains to the Pacific.

The term encompasses both indigenous peoples and ethnic Russians who settled the territory.

A Siberian is also a breed of cat—large, long-haired, and adapted to cold climates: Siberians are known for being hypoallergenic.
