The Arctic is a polar region located at the northern-most part of the Earth. The Arctic consists of the Arctic Ocean and parts of Canada, Russia, Denmark (Greenland), Norway, the United States (Alaska), Sweden, Finland, and Iceland. The Arctic region consists of a vast, ice-covered ocean, surrounded by treeless permafrost. To the human traveler, it is an other worldly sight, an ice covered wilderness stretching as far as the eye can see, seemingly empty of life. But that is not the case, as some animals claim this frozen cap as their home. Enjoy this stunning photo series of the arctic. |
