assignment, I have decided to focus on the lynx population in today’s world. Lynx are mainly discovered in moist, boreal forests that have cold and snowy winters. They also populate habitats that have high concentration of their preferred prey: the snowshoe hare. There are two species of lynx widely inhabiting North America namely Canada Lynx and Bobcats. Canada lynx populate primarily in the boreal forests of Canada and Alaska, while Bobcats are found mainly in the temperate zones. Bobcats are normally

helps it walk in deep snow. This species is highly recognizable by almost everyone just from its unique features such as its uniquely small tail, long strands of hair at the end of its face, and its rust brownish red fur. The Lynx cat eats mostly the snowshoe hare, which does affect its population at times. When the hare population declines the adult Lynx commonly survives the famine but its babies do not which causes a decline in population. The Lynx reproduce during the winter months, females mating

The Tundra Ecosystem The tundra is an ecosystem that has consumers, decomposer, food chain and producers so that is the stuff that I know about tundra ecosystem so let's get started with The tundra ecosystem facts about the tundra ecosystem. The food source in the tundra is important. The tundra is a harsh, cold treeless landscape that exists in the extreme Northern and Southern hemispheres. People that live in the tundras include Inuit, Islanders, Greenlanders and Asiatic cultures

account for the limited food that is sometimes available in the north. (webb & website) Wolverines relationship with snow is essential as they have adapted to the northern conditions, using it to their advantage. First of all, wolverines have large ‘snowshoe’ like feet

The study occurred at Morrell Creek in the United States Northern Rockies, a temperate boreal coniferous forest, and the animal of interest was wild snowshoe hares. Approximately 148 radio collared hares were observed over the course of two years beginning in 2010 and ending in 2012. Due to the low annual survival rate of the hares, only seven hares survived, therefore, limiting the collection of data

The Taiga is a very interesting (and hard to pronounce) biome in the world. The Taiga is home to many animals and plants, that take shelter in the Taiga. It is a very cold place so it is hard for animals to adapt to the weather, but they do! The Taiga is in many places in the world, but the place it is found most is around North America,Asia, And even Europe. The Taiga is found in most parts of the Northern Hemisphere. Most Taigas are in cold areas, because a Taiga is a very cold biome.The taiga

water resulted that air bubbles that are trapped in the hollows between the fins or petals of the underhairs and in some areas where the guard hairs located. This may be another reason why the conductance of otter fur increases less than that of the snowshoe hare when placed in water as discussed in the article. Some significant finding were found and discussed of how river otters have waterproofed, smooth coats that act as insulation. A layer of fat sits below the smooth coat, providing the otters with

shoreline bustled with tiny tweets from the various chickadees and nuthatches nestled there. The more we walked, the warmer we became – good thing we were dressed in layers! Also, bringing beverages and granola bars was smart idea. We continued to snowshoe and found a small island covered in jack pines that had been twisted in the direction of the prevailing wind. I wondered what creatures might be denned up in the scrub of that uninhabited island. I pictured a family of wolves curled up nose to tail
