Polar Bears live in the Arctic not the Antarctic. They can live in the Arctic because they have evolved to survive in that environment and ecosystem and therefore need that habitat for continued survival. They have developed into extremely well-adapted animals for cold climates with heavy insulation from their specialized coats and body fat. They live by hunting on ice floes and are the top predator in their environment. They have many physical adaptations that help them survive the temperatures and hunt in frigid waters and on ice.
There are no polar bears in Antarctica, or any kind of animal life: it's too cold there.

Actually, there are creatures there. Six seal species, 35 shorebirds, and at least two cetaceans, the orca (aka killer whale) and the sperm whale. Not to mention several penguin species.
