Mammals of the Alpine Life Zone. Most animals in the alpine only live there during the short alpine summer. The alpine grasses and flowers provide abundant food for elk, deer, and other small animals. Their predators, like mountain lions, coyotes, and red foxes, follow them up too. The cold windy and snowy weather forces them to move down to the lower elevations by September. There are only a few animals that can live there most of the year (mountain goats, mountain bighorn sheep, american pika, and yellow-bellied marmot).
