With its compact body form, well-furred ears, and thick hair on the soles of its feet, it is very well adapted to the arctic environment.The white fox feeds mostly on lemmings. It also scavenges wolf kills and ventures onto the sea ice to pick up the remains of seals left behind by the polar bears. It is normally a solitary animal, except during the mating season or when its lured to a feast. Unlike most wild animals, it has little fear of humans and often approaches them to have a closer look.Take home one of the Arctic's most endearing residents with the 2004 Silver Proof Coins - the first fractional fine silver coins to feature stunning wildlife designs that were originally crafted for platinum proof coins.Specifications:Mintage: 20,000Finish: Proof1 ounce:Purity: 99.99%Weight (g): 31.39Diameter (mm): 38.00Face Value: $51/2 ounce:Purity: 99.99%Weight (g): 15.87Diameter (mm): 34.00Face Value: $41/4 ounce:Purity: 99.99%Weight (g): 7.96Diameter (mm): 27.00Face Value: $31/10 ounce:Purity: 99.99%Weight (g): 3.23Diameter (mm): 20.00Face Value: $2Packaging:Black clamshell case with arctic fox special cardboard sleeve.
