Best answer

Taiga region is not found in Southern Hemisphere because-

1. There is not much land at higher altitude in the southern hemisphere (until inside the Antarctic circle) where it is permanently ice covered. 

2. Most of the land is fairly close to oceans and thus tempered by marine warming. 

3. Whereas, Taiga is found throughout the high Northern latitudes between Tundra and the temperate forest, characterised by coniferous forests. 

4. The strong oceanic influence in the southern hemisphere reduces the severity of the winter, thus, affecting the temperature and precipitation.
