The Arctic fox is a small fox that lives in the tundra and Arctic regions of North America, Europe, and Asia. It spends part of the year on the ice pack near the North Pole. It eats rodents, birds, bird eggs, fish, and small seals. It gets food by hunting but also by scavenging. It has very thick fur, which changes from brown to white depending on the season.
