갈기머리Polar Bear facts:
Polar bears populate the annual Arctic sea ice in northern Canada, Greenland, Norway, and Russia. Between late April and mid-July, polar bears hunt ringed and bearded seals on the sea ice. With adult males weighing up to 1,430 pounds and growing as much as nine feet in length, they are the world’s largest terrestrial carnivores. As a result of global warming, sea ice is melting earlier and forming later each year, leaving polar bears less time to hunt. As their ice habitat shrinks, skinnier and hungrier bears face a grave challenge to their survival.
Arctic Fox facts:
Usually found in coastal areas, the arctic fox lives within arctic and tundra regions throughout Europe, Asia, North America and Greenland. Although they prefer small mammals, arctic foxes are opportunistic feeders and will eat anything they can find, including berries. When food is scarce during the harsh winters, these resourceful foxes will trail polar bears to scavenge on any uneaten prey. Their paws are covered in dense fur during the winter, giving them the name "lagopus" (which means "rabbit footed"). Fur trapping, habitat loss and predators such as the red fox threaten this species' survival.
Gray Wolf facts:
Gray wolves inhabit mostly wild and inaccessible areas in a very limited portion of their former range within North America. Their diet consists of deer and smaller prey, such as beavers and hares. Gray wolves are part of the dog or Canidae family, a group characterized by their intelligence and adaptability. Like other members of the dog family, wolves are very territorial, laying claim to familiar den sites, travel routes and feeding grounds. Wolves suffer not only from habitat loss, but they also endure revenge killings for attacks on wild stock.
