皮肤通常是黑色的,被一层毛发所覆盖--这是北极熊不感到寒冷的决定性因素之一。

捕食者的腿的直径达31厘米,帮助动物在冰上行走,而其脂肪的厚度达11.5厘米。

在哪里可以找到它

这些熊也是游泳健将,可以在数小时内完成长距离的游泳。 它们甚至可以在水下停留长达2分钟,通过浅水潜水去寻找猎物。

动物以什么为食

如前所述,这种食肉动物是一种超肉食动物。 在北极地区,这种哺乳动物无法获得植物物种,因此,北极熊的饮食以食用其他动物为主。

例如,海豹是白熊最喜欢的受害者。 然而,这种动物也可以吃鱼和鲸鱼的尸体,以及海象和白鲸。

找出北极熊为什么不吃企鹅的原因

虽然许多图片显示这两种动物在一起,但这两种动物生活在不同的地方。 白熊居住在北极地区,而企鹅更常见于南极洲,在南极。

简而言之,熊只限于停留在北半球,所以这些水禽似乎并没有受到可怕的掠食者的威胁。
