Hidden in the snow where you might not notice lives an adorable animal called the Arctic Fox. This cute little animal changes fur color depending on their season time. In winter, they have a white furry coat that can tolerate the cold and don’t start to shiver until -90°Celsius. After winter has passed, they turn into a dark blue charcoal coat and during this time, they are mostly tundra where they can camouflage with their surrounding. Although this animal is not yet considered a species in danger of extinction, they are certainly wanted for their precious white color coat.
They’re native land mammals from Iceland, and they have spread to Northern Europe and some parts of the United States, Asia, and Europe. They are found at an elevation of 3,000m(9,800ft), and they are also found near the North Pole. The color of their coats determines where they can be seen. For example, The white arctic fox is found in snowy tundra, and the blue morphs live on the coast because they have to blend in. They adapt to the weather, and they can change color.
