How Camels and Polar Bears Adapt Camels First‚ camels can store up to 50 gallons of water in one of their stomachs‚ which allows them to last up to five days in the desert without drinking any water. Their two-toed feet are designed to spread their weight‚ so that they do not sink into the sand. Their nostrils are narrow slits‚ and they have long eyelashes‚ which keep the wind from blowing sand into their nose or eyes. They can also store fat in their hump‚ which gives them energy when food is

Global Warming is causing the decrease of polar bear populations due to the loss of habitat‚ scarcity of food‚ and higher mortality rates in pups. There are nineteen subpopulations of polar bears in the world. They are called "subpopulations" because they are not genetically distinct to one area but generally inhabit nineteen different areas across the circumpolar arctic. A study showed that between 2001 and 2010 there was a 40% population decrease of these bears and according to a U.S Geological Survey

The Polar Bear (Ursus maritimus) is a bear native largely within the Arctic Circle encircling the Arctic Ocean‚ its surrounding seas and land masses. Although it is closely related to the Brown Bear‚ it has evolved to occupy a narrower ecological forte‚ with many body characteristics adapted for cold temperatures‚ for moving across snow‚ ice‚ and open water‚ and for hunting the seals which make up most of its diet. Though there are many theories surrounding evolution‚ the two stand outstanding hypotheses

Task 1 Can polar bears and people coexist? Polar bears are the largest land predator on earth today. They live in the Arctic area‚ surrounded by the northern nations like Norway‚ Greenland and Canada. The effects of global warming have caused the temperatures to rise‚ which have led the Arctic ice to melt. Because the polar bears’ territory is shrinking‚ they are forced to hunt further inland. They usually hunt on the sea ice‚ but they cannot do that now. A polar bear can starve for months‚ but
