ANIMAL FACTS Adaptations – Arctic foxes have furry soles, short ears, and a short muzzle. When the seasons change, their coats change as well. They change from white in the winter to brown or gray in the summer.

ARCTIC FOX: BASIC NEEDS Basic Needs air water shelter food Shelter/Habitat burrows Food rodents birds fish

THE TUNDRA COMMUNITY Dall sheep caribou Arctic skua wolverine muskrat Arctic hare
