	'''~~Old~~ growth pine ~~taigas~~''' or '''mega ~~taigas~~''' ~~are~~ forested [[Minecraft:~~biomes~~]] ~~covered~~ with ~~both~~ large 2×2 ~~and normal-sized~~ [[Minecraft:spruce tree]]s, with the tall trees being mostly arrow shaped with few leaves at the top. ~~Uniquely to this biome,~~ [[Minecraft:~~Zombie villagers~~]] ~~have the highest spawn rate amongst all biomes{{only~~\|~~java}}~~.		The '''old growth pine taiga''' or '''mega taiga''' is a forested [[Minecraft:biome]] filled with large 2×2 [[Minecraft:spruce tree]]s, with the tall trees being mostly arrow-shaped with few leaves at the top. The ground is made of [[Minecraft:podzol]] and [[Minecraft:Coarse Dirt\|coarse dirt]] and covered by [[Minecraft:Mossy Cobblestone\|mossy cobblestone]] rocks.

	== Generation ==		== Generation ==
	Old growth pine taigas generate at moderately low temperature, very high [[Minecraft:humidity]] and positive weirdness. They border [[Minecraft:~~grove~~]]~~s, normal~~ [[Minecraft:~~taiga~~]]s, [[Minecraft:~~dark forest~~]]s, ~~[[Minecraft:windswept forest]]s, and [[Minecraft:swamp]]s~~. Old growth pine taigas can ~~also border~~ [[Minecraft:~~snowy taiga~~]]s, [[Minecraft:~~meadow~~]]s, ~~and~~ [[Minecraft:~~pale garden~~]]~~s at the tops of a plateau. At higher elevations they transition to~~ [[Minecraft:grove]]s and [[Minecraft:~~frozen peaks~~]]. Due to their very high humidity values, old growth pine taigas are almost guaranteed to have [[Minecraft:lush caves]] generate beneath them~~. They are often separated by [[Minecraft:river]]s from [[Minecraft:old growth spruce taiga]]s. In coastal areas they border [[Minecraft:cold ocean]]s~~.		Old growth pine taigas generate at moderately low temperature, very high [[Minecraft:humidity]] and positive weirdness. They commonly border regular [[Minecraft:taigas]] and dark forests. They are often separated by [[Minecraft:river]]s from [[Minecraft:old growth spruce taiga]]s, a variant with mega spruce trees that have leaves all around the trunk.

			Old growth pine taigas can generate in any type of terrain, near [[Minecraft:swamps]] and [[Minecraft:windswept forests]], or near [[Minecraft:mountains]] with [[Minecraft:grove]] slopes and nearby [[Minecraft:pale gardens]]. Due to their very high humidity values, old growth pine taigas are almost guaranteed to have [[Minecraft:lush caves]] generate beneath them.

	As the name implies, an old growth pine taiga includes trees that have attained a great age, and therefore great height.		As the name implies, an old growth pine taiga includes trees that have attained a great age, and therefore great height. These pines grow all over the landscape, while most of them are tall with 2×2 trunks, regular pine and spruce trees can also generate.

Additionally, [[Minecraft:Forest rock\|rocks]] made of [[Minecraft:mossy cobblestone]] frequently generate on the ground and [[Minecraft:dead bush]]es generate alongside the [[Minecraft:sweet berry bush]]es, [[Minecraft:fern]]s, [[Minecraft:large fern]]s~~, and [[Minecraft:short grass]] on the ground~~. [[Minecraft:Mushroom]]s are more common here than most ~~[[Minecraft:~~Overworld]] biomes. [[Minecraft:Trail ruins]] may generate here. Black [[Minecraft:wolves]], [[Minecraft:fox]]es, and [[Minecraft:rabbit]]s{{only\|java\|short=1}} may spawn here. ~~As the~~ climate ~~here~~ is cold, [[Minecraft:~~rain~~]]~~fall changes~~ to [[Minecraft:~~snowfall~~]] ~~above layer Y~~=~~200±8.~~		Much of the [[Minecraft:grass block]]s are replaced by large swaths of [[Minecraft:podzol]] and [[Minecraft:coarse dirt]].

			[[Minecraft:Trail ruins]] may generate here, but [[Minecraft:villages]] and [[Minecraft:pillager outposts]] cannot. Black [[Minecraft:wolves]], [[Minecraft:fox]]es, and [[Minecraft:rabbit]]s{{only\|java\|short=1}} may spawn here. The climate is cold and allows [[Minecraft:snowfall]] above layer Y=200±8, but this only occurs on top of some trees on mountain slopes. Uniquely to this biome, [[Minecraft:zombie villagers]] have the highest spawn rate amongst all biomes.{{only\|java\|short=1}}

	There are overall more trees in old growth pine taigas compared to normal taigas, leading to increased foliage density. This makes wood more abundant, though as a large portion of it grows as part of tall 2×2 spruce trees, it may be more difficult to obtain. Old growth pine taigas are slightly more difficult for survival than regular taigas for this reason, though aren't so bad once acclimated and strategies are used to clear the tall trees; they may offer more unique views compared to regular taigas as well.

Old growth pine taigas have coolish color grading which tints the environment with a colder blue color, and cold sunlight which appears slightly brighter at dusk and dawn.

	There are overall more trees in old growth pine taigas compared to normal taigas, leading to increased foliage density. This makes wood more abundant, though as a large portion of it grows as part of tall 2×2 spruce trees, it may be more difficult to obtain. Old growth pine taigas are slightly more difficult for survival than regular taigas for this reason, though aren't so bad once acclimated and strategies are used to clear the tall trees; they may offer more unique views compared to regular taigas as well.
