Life On Land And In The Ocean

 Here we see the Snowy Owl, which spends at least some of its time in the far north.

The caribou migrates vast distances in the Arctic. Beluga and narwhals are residents of Arctic waters.

Fish thrive in Arctic waters. This video shows them swimming in a passage between the ice.

Here we have a ringed seal.

Belugas, bowheads, narwhals, and killer whales all call the Arctic home.

So too does the Greenland shark, which can live four hundred years or more, thought to be the oldest animal lifespan.

Here we have living residents often found in Arctic waters.

The thick-billed murre is a bird that lives in colonies along cliffs, providing protection for their nests, and dive deep into the ocean for fish.

The common eider is a resident of the north.

This display case includes small things, like soft shelled clams, and the skull of a walrus or section of baleen from a whale. We'll continue on from here tomorrow.
