Explanation:

1. Arctic foxes (Vulpes Lagopus) are extremely well-adapted to the harsh, frigid temperatures of the Arctic.

Their thick fur enables them to maintain a consistent body temperature and provides insulation. Plus, their short legs, short muzzle and rounded ears all reduce the amount of surface area for heat loss, and their feet are covered in fur.

2. The Arctic fox has the warmest pelt of any animal found in the Arctic, enduring temperatures as low as -70 °C.

Once conditions get too cold, its metabolism increases to provide warmth.

3. The Arctic fox is a member of the canidae family of animals.

They are related to other foxes, wolves and dogs.

4. They are primarily solitary animals living on the Arctic tundra and pack ice.

5. Arctic Fox does not hibernate and their fur changes colours with the seasons.

In the summer the Arctic fox has a brown or great coat with a lighter belly. It then turns into a thick white one in the winter. It is the only canid that changes the colour of its coat, allowing it to camouflage with the snow and ice in the winter and rocks and plants in the summer.
