Your own shadow In shades of red Is getting closer by the minute While you're dressed in white In the iciness Of tundra.
In winter, when the surroundings are blanketed in whiteness, the Arctic fox dons thick, white fur that renders it invisible in the snowy environment. Beneath the whiteness, its skin is darkly pigmented, enhancing heat absorption and retention, which is a significant resource in the cold conditions of the tundra. As spring arrives and the snow melts, its fur becomes shorter and thinner, taking on a color that can range from shades of blue to gray and brown. This transformation is crucial for camouflage in the new environment. The melting snow caused by climate change leads to habitat loss, territory overlap, and competition with the larger and more adaptable red fox. All of this drives the Arctic fox further north in search of food and shelter.
