The Arctic Fox, also known as the white fox, polar fox, and snow fox, is one of the most common mammals found throughout the frigid landscapes of the Arctic. Remarkably, thanks to its multi-layered fur, this amazing creature can withstand temperatures as low as -70 ℃ without feeling cold!In history, the superior insulating power of the Arctic fox's thick coat led indigenous tribes to hunt them for their pelts. This over-hunting threatened the global Arctic fox population. However, with the diminishment of the fur trade, Arctic fox numbers have successfully rebounded. Today, the Arctic fox population is steadily increasing and is classified as of 'least concern' on the conservation status spectrum.This Safari Ltd.
