Not far from the North Pole , the world frozen for thousands of kilometres . In this white land , we can sometimes the furry white body of an arctic fox . The canine has a thick white coat but warm fur alone might not keep this fox alive during the polar winter , when temperatures rarely get above zero degrees . Arctic foxes be white , brown , or even blueish - gray . Its color depends on the time of year .

BUILT FOR THE ARCTIC
Arctic foxes on the land and sea ice within the Arctic Circle . Winter in the Arctic unlike winter in most parts of the world . From October to February , the sun never rises to shine warmth and light .

Luckily , these small foxes some useful adaptations for living in the icy Arctic . Their thick fur coat keeps the fox ? s body at a toasty 40°C . Their long , fluffy tails act like a blanket , keeping the fox warm when it wraps the tail around its body to sleep .

Their feet also a layer of thick fur , like built - in snow boots . This helps muffle an arctic fox ? s footsteps , making it harder for prey to them . And their white coats make it difficult for predators such as wolves , polar bears , and golden eagles to them among the ice and snow . These foxes small ears . That reduces heat loss because less is exposed to the cold .

FINDING FOOD
When it ? s not trying to keep warm or avoid predators , an arctic fox on the hunt for food . They prefer to eat small rodents called lemmings , but when times are tough they whatever they can find : insects , berries , and even the droppings of other animals . Sometimes an arctic fox will follow a polar bear on a hunting trip and the bear ? s leftovers .

If a fox can ? t find food , or if the weather gets really bad , it can dig a snow den and hunker down for up to two weeks . As long as a fox is warm , it can slow down its heart rate and metabolism , which the animal energy so it doesn ? t have to eat as much . It ? s sort of like how bears , but for a shorter period of time .
