Answer:

Animals not adapted to cold migrate to warmer regions.

Explanation:

    Tundra is a type of biome located in the northern hemisphere of the planet, in regions near the Arctic, more precisely in northern America, Europe and other places such as Alaska and Siberia. Its name comes from the Finnish word "Tunturia", which means "plain without trees", which already gives some notion about what this type of vegetation is like and its environment.

    Tundra vegetation is marked by the presence of small, spaced vegetables, predominantly shrubs, herbs, lichens and mosses. These species, however, only develop during the summer months, when temperatures are less cold, reaching a maximum of 10ºC. However, for the remainder of the year, soils and vegetables remain frozen at temperatures up to -20 ° C.

    The Tundra fauna is made up of animals that feed on the few vegetables and serve as food for carnivorous groups. Examples are the polar bear, arctic wolf, musk oxen and arctic hare. Some of these species migrate to warmer areas during winter, others, such as the polar bear itself and some types of insects, develop survival strategies such as hibernation.
