​Bears have thick fur coats to protect them from the cold. Most of them live in northern parts of the world. They are large and powerful. They have agood sense of smell. Some of them eat meat, and some of them eat honey. In winter, some bears find a snug place to hiberbate.

​Antelopes live in a wide range of habitats. Most live in the African savannahs. However, many species are more secluded, such as the forest antelope, as well as the extreme cold-living saiga, the desert-adapted Arabian oryx, the rocky koppie-living klipspringer, and semiaquatic sitatunga.
