cold and icy environment. They are the largest and most powerful land carnivores,
and they have no natural enemies except humans. They mainly feed on seals, which
they hunt on the ice or in the water.

black skin, which absorbs heat from the sun2

introduced animals. The dodo bird is one of the most famous examples of human-
caused extinction.
