*** About Arctic Wildlife: Arctic wildlife includes a variety of organisms adapted to the extreme conditions of the Arctic Circle. This region, characterized by cold temperatures, seasonal ice cover, and permafrost, supports unique ecosystems comprising both terrestrial and marine species. Among the notable animals represented in the artwork are polar bears, known for their stark white fur and powerful demeanor; caribou (reindeer), which traverse vast migratory routes; and narwhals, often referred to as the "unicorns of the sea" because of their distinctive long, spiraled tusks. These species, along with others depicted such as seals and snowy owls, play crucial roles in their respective environments and are integral to indigenous cultures in the Arctic.
