Keeping warm is no problem for polar bears infact sometimes polar bears have to lay flat on their stomachs on the ice just to cool of. Polar bears have the thickest fur of any bear species. Their fur has two layers. The first layer, the under coat, is the closest to their body it consists of thick, plush, hair that retains heat. The next layer, the outer layer, is a layer made of "guard hairs" and are not actually hair at all they are hollow tubes. the tubes trap air for insulation andalso reflect a visible wavelengths of light in their hollow air space, which combine to make the fur whiteeven though it is in fact colorless.

    Gray Wolf Research Paper

    A young deer has strayed away from her herd and is innocently grazing on grass. Ten yards away, a hungry wolf pack slowly stalks toward the fawn after trailing her for days. The deer senses what's happening and darts away, but it's too late, the fawn is as good as dead. The snowy terrain works to the wolf's’ advantage, with their huge paws acting like snowshoes. The wolves advance as their strongest member leads the chase. The pups watch from the sidelines as the deer quickly tires out. The head wolf quickly latches on to the fawn’s nose and brings her to the ground. The deer thrashes as more wolves come and attack her. Not long after, the fawn gives up her fight and the wolves feast.…

    Dried Bearskin Research Paper

    In Northeastern tribes the people used dried bearskin, which was one of the artifacts displayed at the museum, primarily for bedding material. Although men usually hunted, women were responsible for preparing the pelts. After the flesh was removed from a skin, it was stretched out on the ground to dry. Pegs were then placed around the edge of the skin to keep it in place and reduce shrinkage. When it was also desirable to remove the hair, the next stage in the process was to tan the hide. Tanning involved the use of a mixture of purified brain, liver, and fat. This composite was applied to the flesh side of the skin and worked into it by hand. After several hours had elapsed (sometimes days), the skin was scraped and rubbed between the hands…

    Two animals that I chose are Panthera leo spelaea known as European or Eurasian cave lion and cave bear. European cave lion lived from about 370,000 to 10,000 years ago.
