 Walruses are mammals that have long tusks and a mustache! They are typically found near the Arctic Circle. Walruses are very social, they snort loudly at other walruses. They have lots of blubber on their bodies to keep them warm in the cold water. They can even slow down their heartbeat in order to survive the chilly Arctic water temperatures. Walruses are able to stay under water for as long as 10 minutes. Walruses use their tusks to pull themselves out of the water, break holes into ice from below in order to breathe, etc. A Walruses mustache is very sensitive and help them find their favorite meals (like clams!). ]]> 2022-04-03 21:40:50 UTC https://padlet.com/yv32/u8ddazb04yr8n1xg/wish/2127537731 An animal that cannot survive in the polar habitat yv32 https://padlet.com/yv32/u8ddazb04yr8n1xg/wish/2127542749
A squirrel could not live in the Arctic.  There are no trees in the Arctic and squirrels have habitats in trees.  Also in the winter I do not see squirrels because they hibernate.]]> 2022-04-03 21:50:09 UTC https://padlet.com/yv32/u8ddazb04yr8n1xg/wish/2127542749 Helpful Resources yv32 https://padlet.com/yv32/u8ddazb04yr8n1xg/wish/2127579909 Here are some websites to use for your research:
