  • Because of their thick fur, large teeth and claws and large feet to run fast.
  • White fur for camouflage. They have changed the color of their fur (white) to hid from predaters and prey.(so they can sneak up on them).
  • A polar bear has wide paws to prevent it sinking in the snow. Sharp claws and teeth for hunting seals.
  • Black skin to retain as much heat as possible.
  • A polar bear has big paws for good grip and a thick layer of fur to keep warm.
  • The thickness and layers of their fur provide protection from cold elements such as water. and it also traps and stores heat within their skin.
  • The nostrils can open and close so that when they are in the water trying to catch their prey, their noses do not get water in them.

Polar bears adapted to their habitat by making their hairs in their body thicker and because of their white-colored hairs they are like the color of the area and because of that, they can hide easily from the prey and they can get their food directly without running.
