Here are common adjectives used to describe seals, walruses and other Arctic animals that have adapted to survive very cold temperatures (with a short reason for each):
- blubbery / fatty — thick layers of blubber for insulation and energy
- thick‑skinned — protects and insulates against cold and wind
- densely furred / thick‑furred — fur traps warm air next to the skin
- water‑repellent / waterproof — keeps skin and underfur dry and insulating
- insulated — general term for having features that retain heat
- compact / rounded — reduces surface area to conserve heat
- short‑limbed / short‑eared — minimizes heat loss from extremities
- pale / white / camouflaged — coloration that helps blend into snow/ice (behavioral/visual adaptation)
- streamlined — reduces heat loss while swimming and improves swimming efficiency
- cold‑adapted / cold‑tolerant — general physiological tolerance to low temperatures
- warm‑blooded — maintains internal body temperature despite cold
If you have a specific multiple‑choice list, paste it and I’ll mark which ones apply.
