Arctic Animals Word Search
This arctic animals word search holds the creatures of the far north: the polar bear and walrus, the narwhal and beluga whales, the shaggy muskox, the lemming, the ptarmigan and the arctic tern, all of them built to live through months of cold and dark.
Each animal has its own trick for the cold. A polar bear's skin is black to soak up heat, and its fur hairs are clear and hollow, so the coat only looks white. The narwhal's long spiral tusk is a tooth that can grow to about ten feet, usually on the males. The ptarmigan grows feathers on its feet that work like snowshoes, and an arctic fox turns from brown in summer to white in winter.
The arctic tern makes the longest migration of any animal, flying from the Arctic to the Antarctic and back each year, about 44,000 miles by one tracking study. It is one of the few birds that sees both poles. Penguins do not; every penguin species lives in the Southern Hemisphere, so a polar bear and a penguin never meet in the wild.
