Transcript
Arctic animals have various adaptations to survive extreme cold. Polar bears possess thick blubber and two layers of fur for insulation and an elongated snout to warm air[1][4]. Arctic foxes and hares have thick fur, smaller limbs, and small ears to reduce heat loss[2][3]. Reindeer have antlers for digging through snow and special vision for spotting food[2]. Walruses use tusks to haul onto ice and echolocation for navigation[1]. These adaptations are essential for thriving in harsh Arctic conditions.
