what type of climates do Tarsiers live in?
457336
The tarsiers are the members of the Tarsius genus of prosimian primates, monotypic in the Tarsiidae family and Tarsiiformes infraorder. The entire infraorder was previously classified in the Strepsirhini suborder, but now classified in the Haplorrhini suborder, although they are not considered to be monkeys. Evidence for the position of Tarsier in the primate tree came for example from Retrotransposon presence/absence data. Tarsiers have enormous eyes and long feet. Their feet have extremely elongated tarsus bones, which is how they got their name, and most are nocturnal. They are primarily insectivorous, and catch insects by jumping at them. They are also known to prey on birds and snakes. Gestation takes about six months, and tarsiers give birth to single offspring. Once found in Asia, Europe and North America, tarsiers are now only found on several Southeast Asian islands including the Philippines, Sulawesi, Borneo, and Sumatra. Their conservation status has been classified as "Lower Risk/Conservation Dependent". When caged, some tarsiers have been known to injure and even kill themselves because of the stress [1]. They also have the longest continuous fossil record of any primate, and the fossil record suggests that their dental pattern and shape hasn't changed in 45 million years. Unlike many nocturnal animals, tarsiers lack a light-reflecting area (tapetum lucidum) of the eye. They also have a fovea, atypical for nocturnal animals.

Animals live everywhere on Earth. Some places on Earth are very hot and some are very cold. Some places on Earth have a lot of water and plants, and other places have very little water and few plants. Antarctica is covered with snow and ice and has no plants. It is very cold there, too. Guess what? Animals even live in Antarctica!\n\nAnimals can live in many different places in the world because they have special adaptations to the area they live in. An adaptation is a way an animal's body helps it survive, or live, in its environment. Camels have learned to adapt (or change) so that they can survive.\n\nAnimals depend on their physical features to help them obtain food, keep safe, build homes, withstand weather, and attract mates. These physical features are called called physical adaptations. They makes it possible for the animal to live in a particular place and in a particular way. Each adaptation has been produced by evolution. This means that the adaptations have developed over many generations. The shape of a bird's beak, the number of fingers, colour of the fur, the thickness or thinness of the fur, the shape of the nose or ears are all examples of physical adaptations which help different animals to survive.

They have evolved and adapted to just about every Biome and environment on Earth.  They are found deep in Ocean on on Mountains, in frigid cold water and on warm tropical islands.  They are defined as successful because of their ability to evolve to so many places.  (Also, they're physically tough, often with an outer shell and a compact muscular body and some are decomposers feeding off dead animals, while others attack living organisms)\n\n-Science methods teacher trainer

The tropics or the equatorial regions,   are the geographic region of the Earth centered on the equator (parallel 0) and limited in latitude by the Tropic of Cancer in the northern hemisphere, at approximately 23°26' (23.4°) N latitude, and the Tropic of Capricorn in the southern hemisphere at 23°26' (23.4°) S latitude. This region is also referred to as the tropical zone and the torrid zone.\n\nThis area includes all the areas of the Earth where the sun reaches a point directly overhead at least once during the solar year. (In the temperate zones, north of the Tropic of Cancer and south of the Tropic of Capricorn, the sun never reaches an altitude of 90° or directly overhead.) The word "tropics" comes from Greek tropos meaning "turn", because the apparent position of the Sun oscillates between the two tropics with a period that defines the average length of a year.\n\nTropical plants and animals are those species native to the tropics. Tropical is also sometimes used in a general sense for a tropical climate, a climate that is warm to hot and moist year-round, often with the sense of lush vegetation. However, there are places in the tropics that are anything but "tropical" in this sense, with even alpine tundra and snow-capped peaks, including Mauna Kea, Mt. Kilimanjaro, and the Andes as far south as the northernmost parts of Chile and Argentina. Places in the tropics which are drier with low humidity are such as the Sahara Desert and Central Africa and Northern Australian Outback.\n\nTropical ecosystems may consist of rainforests, dry deciduous forests, spiny forests, desert and other habitat types. There are often significant areas of biodiversity and species endemism present particularly in rainforests and dry deciduous forests. Some examples of important biodiversity and/or high endemism ecosystems are: Costa Rican rainforests, Madagascar dry deciduous forests, Waterberg Biosphere of South Africa and eastern Madagascar rainforests. Often the soils of tropical forests are low in nutrient content making them quite vulnerable to slash-and-burn techniques, which are sometimes an element of shifting cultivation agricultural systems-.

Northern Nevada and Utah have great examples of this type of climate. It tends to be warm and dry but does have four seasons. Hard to explain even though I lived in an area like this. It is usually called high desert

well according to my knowledge it is a microscopic acquatic animal that lives in mosses and lichens.it looks like a little catepillar that is less than 1/2 mm in length.[that is tiny.]and when it moves it looks like a lumbering brown bear.its more formal name is tarigrade,and it is sometimes also called a moss piglet.the animal is very special because it can live under very harsh conditions,under extreme heat,extreme cold.and it can go into a sort of hibernation of more than a century and still come back to life.amazing creature!

There are definitely some ants here in the UK, although obviously not in the numbers found elsewhere. I think it's a climate thing. I remember seeing many ants on a recent trip to the canary islands, which although pretty western, has a far warmer meant temperature than britain.

Dolphins don't live in just tropical marine waters. Dolphins live in colder temperatures too, as well as freshwater.\n\nKiller whales (yes, they are dolphins) live in cold waters, as well as warmer waters.\n\nChinese river dolphins live in fresh water.

we have the hottest country, dryest country, most moist country, coldest country in asia..that's why it's like a fusion\nall type of climate in one continent...we have country that have seasons and we have country that does not have seasons..for example japan has four seasons, but singapore does not have seasons

Georgia\n\n\n\nGeorgia's climate is affected by subtropical influences from the west and mediterranean influences from the east. The Greater Caucasus range moderates local climate by serving as a barrier against cold air from the north. Warm, moist air from the Black Sea moves easily into the coastal lowlands from the west. Climatic zones are determined by distance from the Black Sea and by altitude. Along the Black Sea coast, from Abkhazia to the Turkish border, and in the region known as the Kolkhida Lowlands inland from the coast, the dominant subtropical climate features high humidity and heavy precipitation (1,000 to 2,000 millimeters per year; the Black Sea port of Batumi receives 2,500 millimeters per year). Several varieties of palm trees grow in these regions, where the midwinter average temperature is 5° C and the midsummer average is 22° C. \n\nThe plains of eastern Georgia are shielded from the influence of the Black Sea by mountains that provide a more continental climate. Summer temperatures average 20° C to 24° C, winter temperatures 2° C to 4° C. Humidity is lower, and rainfall averages 500 to 800 millimeters per year. Alpine and highland regions in the east and west, as well as a semiarid region on the Iori Plateau to the southeast, have distinct microclimates. \n\nAt higher elevations, precipitation is sometimes twice as heavy as in the eastern plains. In the west, the climate is subtropical to about 650 meters; above that altitude (and to the north and east) is a band of moist and moderately warm weather, then a band of cool and wet conditions. Alpine conditions begin at about 2,100 meters, and above 3,600 meters snow and ice are present year-round.

Giraffes live in the savannas of Africa, where they roam freely among the tall trees, arid land, dense forests and open plains.\n\nSuch weather and forest conditions are not found in India, so giraffes are NOT found in India.

No, lions do not live in the jungle, although some apparently  live in the forest.  Read below:\n\n"Despite the nickname King of the Jungle, most lions live on the flat, grassy plains called savannas. In ancient times, lions roamed nearly every continent. Today, they can commonly be found across central and southern Africa. There is also a small population in the Gir forest of India on the continent of Asia."

It depends.. iF htey live there all year round they have layers fo fat called blubber\nthey also have fur... polar bears have clear fur to collect heat and light and warm the bears. \n\nif they are travelling inbetween cold and warm( like humans d0)\nthey do things like shiverring and teeth chattering, also the blood rusehs to the skin to warm and away from the ears adn the feet to keep the inner organs warm
