#3802 - 37¢ Arctic Tundra - sheet of 10

Extremely cold temperatures, high winds and sparse precipitation mark the severe climate of the arctic tundra. Much of the soil remains frozen all year, though the top soil thaws enough during the warmer months to support the growth of certain types of vegetation. Less than 50 different species of land mammals inhabit this harsh environment, though a large number of birds are known to migrate to the tundra each year from the marshlands. Many of the more predatory animals have adapted to the long winter-like conditions by growing thick, white coats of fur or feathers to camouflage and insulate themselves. Scott 3802 Arctic Tundra
