Reading

A world of extremes

          Many animals have adapted to life in extreme heat and cold. Think of the extremes in Egypt. There are burning deserts and there are the high mountains of Sinai, which are sometimes covered with snow. Now think of the North Pole with its enormous glaciers and freezing water. Think of the rain forests of South America and Asia, with their heavy rain. Incredibly, these environments are home to many types of wild life.

          One of the animals best adapted to heat is Egypt’s sand cat. It is not much bigger that a city cat, but it’s designed for desert life, with thick fur on its feet to protect it from the heat. Sand cats are not often seen because they sleep underground during the day and only come out to hunt at night. Like many other desert animals, they do not have to find water, as they get all the moisture they need from their prey, which includes rats and mice.

          At the other extreme, polar bears live on the ice around the North Pole. They are between 2.5 and 4.5 meters long and more than 450 kilograms in weight. Their white fur and thick skin protect them from the extreme cold. They live on fish, which they catch through holes in the ice. They have an incredible sense of smell and can smell their prey as far as 16 kilometers away. They can run faster than 50 kilometers an hour.
