- Characteristics: Although it may not seem so at a glance due to how barren it is, the Arctic is actually a well populated ecosystem. This Toob will help you learn about all the amazing adaptions these species have developed, like the Arctic fox’s keenly honed hearing that allows it to hear prey moving under the snow, in order to live in such a harsh, unforgiving environment.

Like almost all Arctic animals, creatures like the polar bear, Arctic rabbit, and Arctic fox have snowy white pelts that allow them to evade detection from prey and predators alike.

History:
The Arctic is best characterized by cold winters and cool summers, and most of the precipitation comes in the form of snow. While the region is cold enough by itself, it’s also incredibly windy with wind chills of up to -90 degrees Fahrenheit (-68 Celsius). Because of this and the relative lack of fauna in non-tundra regions, many are surprised to learn that the Arctic actually supports a large number of species. The next best thing to travelling there yourself, our Toob introduces you to some of the most iconic and commonly spotted denizens of the northernmost polar region.
