An Entity of Type : dbkwik:resource/cbIqrnZj3ZmxftsDyomTAg==, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

The snow leopard caribou is characterized by a relatively stocky build, thick white fur, and short ears, all of which are adaptations that minimize heat loss and make the snow leopard caribou well-suited for living in the tundras of the South Pole. Throughout its body, the coat is dotted by semi-large black open rosettes, while the face is covered by smaller black spots. As with all other big cats, snow leopard caribou have sharpened canines and a dental formula consistent with that of other obligate carnivores.

  • The snow leopard caribou is characterized by a relatively stocky build, thick white fur, and short ears, all of which are adaptations that minimize heat loss and make the snow leopard caribou well-suited for living in the tundras of the South Pole. Throughout its body, the coat is dotted by semi-large black open rosettes, while the face is covered by smaller black spots. In addition, the snow leopard caribou has a short muzzle and a domed forehead, allowing it to adequately breathe the thin, cold air characteristic of polar regions. Snow leopard caribou also have two large brown antlers and wide feet bearing crescent-shaped, cloven hooves that aid travel in deep snow. Like other cervids, snow leopard caribou have short, blunt tails. As with all other big cats, snow leopard caribou have sharpened canines and a dental formula consistent with that of other obligate carnivores.
