Bizarre wildlife (Alpine species)

Bizarre alpine wildlife refers to unusual and uniquely adapted animals that live in high-altitude mountain environments. These species often possess specialized features, such as thick fur for cold temperatures, compact bodies to conserve heat, and behaviors suited to scarce food and harsh conditions. Examples include the snow leopard, with its powerful build and thick coat, and alpine marmots that hibernate during winter. Their adaptations help them survive extreme cold, strong winds, and limited vegetation, making them fascinating examples of evolution in some of the planet's most extreme habitats.
