Description: The arctic lemming (Dicrostonyx torquatus) is a small rodent found in the northern regions of the world, including northern Canada, Alaska, northern Europe, and northern Asia. It is the only species in the genus Dicrostonyx. It is a keystone species in its environment, playing a crucial role in the food chain by providing food for predators such as arctic foxes, snowy owls, and ermine. The arctic lemming is a herbivore; its diet consists of mosses, lichens, and other vegetation. It is also one of the most abundant rodents in the Arctic, forming large colonies during the summer months.
