During the Ice Age, mutations that favored thicker fur and body fat helped bears adapt to colder climates, improving their chances of survival. Additionally, genetic variations that enhanced their ability to find and store food during scarce periods contributed to their resilience. These adaptations allowed bears to thrive in harsh environments, ensuring their survival through extreme conditions. Overall, beneficial mutations played a crucial role in the evolutionary success of bears during this challenging period.
