    Many animals have adaptations that help them survive in different environments. Polar bears have thick fur to keep warm in the Arctic's cold climate, while camels can drink large amounts of water to survive in deserts where water is scarce. Arctic foxes, identified in the picture by their white fur, have adaptations like thick fur to withstand cold temperatures. Desert foxes, with their light tan fur, are adapted to hot, dry conditions.
