We started a book on the article tundra. Some of the characteristics of this tundra- it is a very cold region , no trees,you could see snow for miles around. They used dogs to pull sleds, they hunted animals for the hides, and they dug in the ice for mussels. When the girl went below the ice she also saw some figures drawn on the walls. She also saw more animals like a pinky crab,shrimp, barnacles, and she touched anemones.
We watched a short BBC clip showing people digging through the ice for mussels.
In both the short movie and the book , they had to be concerned with the tide coming back in. The movie said they had about 30 minutes.
Some animals we predict might live in this environment may be Bears, polar bears,foxes,
