Plants and animals of the polar region require the conservation of heat and to some extent water. Most animals that have adapted to the cold environments, are shorter in stance, longer coats, shorter ears, all in an effort to conserve heat and energy. In contrast, a desert environment would exhibit animals with longer legs, long ears, shorter less thicker coats, in an effort to dissipate heat, rather than conserve it.
