Detailed explanation-1: -Thanks to special adaptations, such as a thick layer of blubber, two layers of fur, compact ears, and a small tail, polar bears can withstand temperatures as low as-50° Fahrenheit. Polar bears use snow like a towel. First they shake off the water; then they roll in the snow to dry off.

Detailed explanation-2: -Physically, brown bears have a series of interesting adaptations! Their long curved claws help them dig up small animal burrows and roots. The large muscle on their shoulders enables a bear to sprint up to 30 miles per hour to capture large, fast moving prey, like caribou. Similar to humans, brown bears are omnivorous.

Detailed explanation-3: -The polar bear’s heavy coat is a very important adaptation used in body temperature regulation. The color of polar bear’s fur changes annually; during the winter, after the summer molt, polar bear’s fur appears pure white, whereas, during the summer its fur seems to have a yellow tint to it.
