北极的"居民"是如何过冬的?

Arctic Hare

Shortened ears and thick, white fur are among the physical traits that arctic hares have adapted to survive in the harsh, frozen tundra.

北极兔

为了适应北极的冻土和艰苦的生活环境，北极兔进化出了短耳朵和厚厚的雪白色皮毛。

Arctic Fox

The lush white coat of the arctic fox provides both warmth and camouflage in winter.

北极狐华丽的雪白大衣为它抵御了严寒，同时还提供了躲避天敌的伪装。

Baby Harp Seal

A baby harp seal rests on the Arctic ice. Its mother can distinguish it from hundreds of others by scent alone.

格陵兰海豹宝宝们正在北极冰盖上休息。它们的妈妈可是火眼金睛，能通过气味从成百上千只海豹宝宝中找到自己的孩子。

Desert Cottontail Rabbit

Ubiquitous throughout North and South America, cottontail rabbits, including this desert variety, are noted for their fluffy "cotton" tail.

沙漠白尾灰兔

在北美洲和南美洲，这种白尾灰兔几乎到处可见，包括这种以毛茸茸的尾巴而闻名的沙漠白尾灰兔。

Snowshoe Hare

The aptly named snowshoe hare has particularly large feet and a winter-white coat. In the summer though, their fur turns brown, taking up to ten weeks to change color completely.

北美野兔

北美野兔因大脚和雪白的皮毛而得名，尽管在夏天它就变成棕色了，而这需要10周时间。

Musk-Oxen

Thick, shaggy fur keeps musk-oxen warm in the harsh Arctic tundra.

麝牛

厚厚的蓬松长毛使得麝牛即使身处北极冻土，也不会怕冷。

小编物语：

看了这些家住北极的可爱小朋友，有没有心生怜惜呢？随着气候变化，它们的家园越来越小，又没有适宜的地方可以搬迁……所以，希望看到这里的你可以从点滴做起，爱护身边的一花一木，一草一树，保护好我们共同的家园。

Siberian Tigers

Of the three remaining species of tigers, Siberian tigers are the largest. While there are only 400 to 500 left in the wild, the population is considered stable, and conservation programs are introducing captive-born tigers to the wild.

西伯利亚虎

世界仅存的三个虎种中，西伯利亚虎算是保留最多的一种了。但野生西伯利亚虎只有400到500只，数量稳定，动物保护机构正在研究如何野化人工驯养老虎的后代，让其重返自然。

Bighorn Sheep

Bighorn sheep live in divided herds: ewes and lambs together in larger groups, rams in smaller bachelor herds. They usually only cross paths in the fall for mating.

大角羊

大角羊这种生物是分开聚居的：母羊和羔羊在一起，公羊单独聚成一个小群体。两个群体只有在秋天交配的时候才会碰面。

King Penguins

King penguins' flippers are distinctively large, helping them dive deep in the icy ocean. On land, they waddle and toboggan across the ice—sliding on their bellies, and propelling themselves with their flippers.

国王企鹅

国王企鹅的鳍非常大，这使它们能在水中潜得更深。在陆地上，它们只能步履蹒跚，或肚子着地，用巨大的鳍滑行。

Emperor Penguins

Emperor penguins are the largest penguins, standing about 4 feet (1.2 meters) tall.

帝企鹅

帝企鹅是最大的企鹅品种，站着有约4英尺（1.2米）高。
