They adapt to their surroundings. Different animals have different adaptations. Eg polar bears are large (they have a smaller surface area to volume ratio), they have blubber to keep them warm which also is used to store food, they have small extremeties (ears), and they have 2 layers of insulating fur all over. Including feet. But not all animals adapt in the same way.
