Crushing The Winter Olympics

The Olympics are especially designed to examine best athleticism, in the human realm. But what about the animal world? How would Arctic foxes fare in the Winter Olympics, or snowy owls for that matter?
Such Arctic animals and other animals are fast flyers and runners so they hunt prey with deadly perfection. these animals doesn't follow all the rules, but here are seven animals that would shine at the Winter Olympics and are likely to win a few gold medals.
1. Artic fox
Artic foxes don't use skis to go around, but the fur on their feet gives them grip as they run, pretending as a natural snowshoe. In fact, their species name, lagopus, means "hare-footed" in Greek, according to the San Diego Zoo.
2. Flattie spider
When the web-less spider gets a potential meal, it keeps it's one leg harboured and spins around until it catches its target. The flattie spider (Selenopidae) can spin faster than an Olympic figure skater. To be exact, this arachnid can spin around in one-eighth of a second, which is nearly three times faster than the blink of an eye, according to a study published Feb. 12 in the Journal of Experimental Biology.
As compared to figure skaters draw their arms closer to body to spin faster, flattie spiders pull their remaining legs toward themselves, which make them to spin up to 40 percent faster and to get a perfect landing, with their mouth arranged next to the prey.

3. Arctic hare
During the time of ski jumping, Winter Olympic athletes zoom off a ski jump and bow forward, with their skis made in a V-shape as they zoom through the air and land at the record distances for their respective countries.
the Arctic hare (Lepus arcticus) are also nominated for this event, given that the hare can go airborne, too, as it bounds through the snow at speeds as high as 40 mph (64 km/h), according to National Geographic.
4. Seal
There are few things more intense than speeding down a steep racetrack slide all the time on their fat bellies as they enter and exit the water, according to Seals-World.
