The answers that apply are;

  • Dense hair all over the body to protect from cold
  • A thick layer of fat to insulate the body
  • Padded feet to walk through the snow

Most of these adaptations enable the animal to bear the cold of the snow. The padded feet reduce the pressure applied on ice by the animal hence enable the animal to walk even on thin ice.

Most animals in these regions have white fur that camouflage with the white snow hence able to hide from predators or stalk prey.

An example of an animal that exhibits these adaptations include the polar bear.
