For most of us humans, the big snowstorms that blanketed much of the Midwest and East Coast last week was just chaos. From shoveling mountains of snow to losing power it was a major disruption in our life.
But for many of the animals at the Smithsonian National Zoo in Washington, DC the snow and cold weather was a welcome change. For some, like the polar bears and wolves, it was a chance to experience their natural climate.
And for others, it was just a chance to have some fun playing in the snow and ice! Click on the link to see how the different animals reacted to the snowy weather!
Snow can change how animals move, forage and explore their surroundings. For some species, a thick layer of snow is business as usual. And for others, it’s an opportunity for fun.
