Arctic animals exhibit unique adaptations to survive in extreme conditions. For instance, polar bears have a thick layer of blubber and fur for insulation, along with webbed feet for swimming efficiently [1][6]. Arctic foxes change coat color seasonally for camouflage, and have a compact body to minimize heat loss [5][11]. Similarly, walruses possess a thick layer of blubber and long tusks to help them haul themselves onto ice [4][6]. Other adaptations include small ears and feet in species like the Arctic hare, reducing heat loss [5][11].
