Arctic foxes have small, rounded ears that help minimize heat loss in their cold environment. This adaptation reduces the surface area exposed to frigid temperatures, allowing them to conserve body heat. Additionally, their keen hearing, aided by the shape of their ears, helps them locate prey, such as lemmings, under the snow. Overall, their ear structure is crucial for both thermoregulation and hunting efficiency.
