The Arctic is home to a variety of unique wildlife adapted to its cold environment. Animals such as the polar bear, Arctic fox, and walrus thrive in this harsh climate. These species have developed thick fur or blubber to insulate against freezing temperatures and are skilled hunters, relying on the sea ice for hunting and breeding. Birds like the snowy owl and Arctic tern also inhabit the region, migrating long distances for food. Marine life, including narwhals and beluga whales, can be found in the frigid waters. The diverse ecosystems of the Arctic support these animals, making it a vital area for biodiversity.
