The Arctic animals are friends who love to frolic in the newly fallen snow. The powerful Arctic Wolf wears very thick fur that turns white in the winter. He can leap up to 15 feet in the air and can even jump backwards. The Arctic Wolf usually runs with other wolves in packs of six, but also enjoys his kindred spirit with the Arctic Hare and Fox.The Arctic Fox, like his friend the Arctic Hare, turns white in the winter and is gray-brown in the summer. His fur is very dense, and his best feature is his big, long bushy tail. His tail is called a sweep, which helps the fox change direction quickly. The bushy tail also keeps the fox's nose and feet warm when it curls up to sleep.
The Arctic Hare enjoys the company of his two companions, but at times can congregate with other hares in groups of up to 200. They hop like kangaroos and can reach very high speeds. Their huge hind feet can help them leap on the snow. This happy group will play until dark, making the Arctic alive with laughter. -- $12.00
