Female Arctic Fox (Vulpes lagopus), a blue morph, huddles for warmth on a windy hillside. These amazing little animals (female body length averages only 16-22 inches or 45-55 cm) endure some extreme conditions. Although she only weighs about 6 pounds or roughly 3 kg, this fox won't even start to shiver until the ambient temperature reaches -94 F or -70 C. In Icelandic, "Melrakki" loosely translates to "Rock Dog," which reflects the Arctic Fox's typical habitat.
