Polar region

Polar bears need to adapt to the cold weather of their climate so they have thick, dense hair. This hair covers almost every part of their body except for their muzzle and footpads. Ironically, Polar bears overheat. To keep from overheating polar bears perform many different actions to regulate their body temperature. Polar bears are known to move quite slowly, but they do this to keep a stable body temperature. Polar bears release extra body heat through their muzzle, ears, and footpads. These…

When it comes to cooling off in the summer, the Huntsmen spider is no exception. However, fear not, as these spiders are generally timid who will run lighting-fast speed when disturbed (termite.com).As seen in the picture,the Huntsman spider's hairy body length of 1/2" and its long legs is known to like the cooling of flat leaves, rocks, and of course the nice A/C temperatures of corners and roofs in buildings. While they are not dangerous, a bite from them is unpleasant. Take care to not anger…

In order for polar bears to preserve their species and live long healthy lives, and avoid stress, they must live in a stable environment with an appropriate consistent diet. Since Polar Bears have been recognized as an endangered species under the Endangered Species Act in 2008 by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (The Alaska Zoo 2005), it is essential to use precaution to preserve them. Captive facilities like the Alaska Zoo possess the sufficient resources for the polar bears that will aid in…

The biome that I picked was the Arctic Tundra. The animal from Arctic Tundra I picked is the polar bear. Female polar bears would rather build their den in old snow,( like from a few years ago.) The polar bear is found in Canada , the U.S (Alaska), Greenland, Russia Norway (the Svalbard archipelago), and Arctic Tundra. The Arctic Tundra climate/weather averages to -30°F. In January it is the coldest weather in Arctic Tundra. It’s about -40°F, in January it has reached -93°F before. Most of the…

Pole, at least one polar bear is tightly grasping onto a single slab of ice that barely supports its body weight of over two-thousand pounds. Due to increasing sea levels, the ice that the polar bear is lying on will evaporate in less than two months. Paddling to find land will lack success as miles of shark-infested waters and several other threats lie between it and a temporary Shangri-la. Its chances of survival are slim, but to lower this probability even further, the polar bear is…

and migration time period of when the polar bear and brown bear separated. Making a dependable time frame for when the polar bear emerged as a new species and how fast new adaptations to intense environments can occur in a large mammal. The population genomic formation evaluates the nuclear genomes of polar bear and brown bear populations. By doing so the researchers estimated when polar bears and brown bears diverged. They gather demographic history of the polar bear and brown bear to make it…

Bears bodies help them survive in their habitat and keep warm in the winter. “Bears have heavy bodies with long, thick fur, loose skin, and large, hairy heads.”I researched how bears bodies help them survive, along with how bears survive in the cold, frosted winter. First off, bears bodies help them survive. “Bears have heavy bodies” with “loose skin” and “large, hairy heads.” Bears have hefty paws and needle-sharp nails to dig up food for themselves or bugs, they can as well tear their prey…

The Polar Bear exhibit at the zoo was the smallest exhibit that I viewed for the day for such a massive animal. By estimation, the exhibit is about 70 feet wide, and 100 feet long. Half of the exhibit is terrain which was a smooth flattened rock surface with several big rocks for the bear to climb up on. The other half of the exhibit was a pool of water, the zoo designed the pool with the edges of the pool to be white, to perhaps give a more arctic feel for the viewers. Also, there were many…

thick under and overcoats that they shed once a year. Seals are protected from the cold by a thick layer of blubber combined with a tick fur coat. Another animal resistant to cold weather is the polar bear; this animal it has its protection from his thick fur and because of its large and heavy body. The polar bears are very good swimmers in cold water. Also, when they swim long distances they cover most of the distance floating on ice. It certainly helps to be big and…

Capt’n Cold is at his apartment in New York City. One day, he gets a card from his twin brother Mickey Mouse . It's a party invitation to his after party after he airs on the Ellen show. When Capt’n Cold sees this he's just like “Wow!”. He was so mad that he wanted revenge. Why didn't he get to be on the Ellen Show? Oh right, because he didn't get called back for his own tv show. Mickey did. So, Capt’n decides that he wants to invade Dallas with sharks. He sneakily gets into the U.S military…
