Welcome
One of the things I love
the most about animals is
how tough they are. From
braving the worst weather
conditions, to surviving
the huge threats they face
out in the wild, they never
cease to amaze me!
In this issue, we discover ten of the
toughest animals on Earth (page 36), from
the polar bear adapted to survive in its Arctic
home, to the invincible tardigrade that can
withstand the most extreme conditions.
Learn all about the Arctic wolf (page 48)
and how it is built to endure cold climates,
and find out why seals are masters of the
ocean, braving hardships on land and ice
(see page 12).
It may be hard for animals to make it
through the harsh winters, but seeing wildlife
in the winter is a sight to behold. Check
out our tips on how to take the best animal
photos in the snow on page 86.
We’d love to see your winter wildlife
photos. Why not send us your best shot for
the chance to win a copy of the next issue!
