Arctic Fox  The Arctic Fox can be also known as the snow fox, polar fox, or white fox  They can endure temperature up to 50 degrees C before its metabolism increases  They have incredible hearing for hunting (they have wide ears facing forward)  Their ears allow them to locate the precise location of the prey beneath the snow

6. Adaptations  Since their habitat is cold they adapt in certain ways such as thick fur  Their foot pads are densely furred so that they can travel on snow and ice for hunting prey  The adaption of color change (fur) helps them camouflage in the summer  The fur of the Arctic fox helps keep them warm and camouflaged in the Arctic tundra]

7. Hunting  The arctic fox feeds on lemmings, voles, squirrels, birds, bird eggs, berries, fish and carrion  When they hear the prey, they leap and bite into the layer of snow  Camouflage in the summer helps them hunt for rodents, birds, and fish  Very desperate for food in the winter
