Animals with Winter Coats!

The video explores how different animals adapt to winter conditions. Some animals migrate or hibernate, while others, like the Arctic fox, Arctic hare, and ptarmigan, change their fur or feathers to blend into snowy environments. These adaptations help them stay warm and avoid predators. The Arctic fox grows a thick white coat for warmth and camouflage, while the Arctic hare uses similar strategies. The ptarmigan changes its feathers and uses snow burrows for warmth. These adaptations are crucial for survival in harsh winter climates.
