Arctic Fox: The coat of the Arctic fox in winter turns to pure white and aids it in disappearing against the snowfield. This stealthy camouflage protects it from predators and helps in ambushing prey more effectively.

The oversized feet act like natural snowshoes that enable it to move silently across deep snow without being easy prey for lynxes and wolves. (Image: Canva) Arctic Hare: The Arctic hare changed from its grey summer fur to a thick white coat, which merged perfectly with icy landscapes. This seasonal change was both for warmth and camouflage in the harsh northern environment.

This transformation helps this fast, agile hunter to vanish into snowy surroundings while stalking rodents and birds.

The change affords the bird camouflage from predators such as eagles, while its feathered feet act like built-in snowshoes.

Their thick fur provides insulation, and the seasonal change in colour makes it more difficult for wolves to spot them from a distance.

This seasonal shift not only provides camouflage but also reduces heat loss, keeping them warm during harsh, freezing months.

Their ability to blend into snowy shrubs protects them from foxes and raptors during long Arctic winters.

This seasonally appearing coat allows for quiet stalking of prey in extreme cold across the far northern tundra. (Image: Canva)
