About Arctic Animals
The Arctic isn't a continent, just a frozen ocean ringed by land, and a surprising number of animals have made a good living there. Caribou walk hundreds of miles across the tundra each year, while belugas and narwhals work the dark water beneath the ice. Even the smallest residents, like the ermine in its white winter coat, have found their own way to stay warm.
