An Intricate Ecosystem

More today from the Arctic Gallery at the Museum of Nature.


These are thick-billed Murre, a cliff dwelling bird and superb fisher.


And here we have live animals of the Arctic- seagoing life forms like this starfish. 


A resident of Arctic waters is the Greenland shark, which is likely the longest living animal species on the planet.


Arctic hare change their fur colour to adapt to the seasons.


So too does the Arctic fox.


Life finds a way, as a well known character of movies would say.

  1. Are all these animals still thriving or are some of them extinct/nearly extinct?
