Well, if there's no lake or anything around, then the animal would most likely try to break through the ice if it could. If there is a lake around, then, there you go.

Do the animals in antarctica die in the summer?
There are no animals that make Antarctica their home: it's too cold and there is no food chain there. Animals associate with Antarctica such as birds, seals, whales and so forth, come to Antarctica and the Southern Ocean to breed. Otherwise, where they live is a mystery to science.
How have whales adapted to live in the antarctica?
Whales are sea animals and do not live on the Antarctic continent. Sea water is their natural habitat, so no adaptation is required.
Why are there no butterflies in Antarctica?

How do animals in the taiga adapted?
Animals adapted in taiga cause they have thick fur and there blood is cold so they adapted.
How do the animals survive in antarctica?
They survive because their body's were built to survive the coldAnother AnswerNothing lives in Antarctica; it's too cold. So, nothing 'survives' in Antarctica.Many animals, including penguins, seals, skuas and petrels, come to Antarctica to breed. As soon as their young are able, all the animals leave Antarctica.The breeding animals are equipped to deal with the extreme cold weather, and the rising sun and lack of sunsets later in the spring and summer, aid in animals' ability to breed on Antarctica's beaches and in Antarctic waters.
How do you manage tourism in Antarctica?
Cut down on the amount of ships that transport tourists there. Tourists keep feeding the animals in Antarctica and so the Artic animals aren't hunting for food themselves but relying on humans. This just shows that somehow we need to stop people visiting Antarctica and just leave the poor animals alone.
Why are non-native animals not allowed on Antarctica?
First, there are no animals that live on Antarctica: it's too cold and there is no food chain. Sea mammals and sea birds, however, do breed on Antarctica's beaches. When humans bring foreign animals to Antarctica -- a practice which is no longer allowed -- the imported animals, mostly dogs, terrorize the local breeding animals, which is natural behaviour for the dogs. It was also found that imported animals could transmit diseases to breeding sea mammals, so the alien animals are not allowed.
What do the dogs eat out in antarctica?
At sea, snow petrel eat mainly fish, some cephalopods (squid), other molluscs, and euphausiids. They also feed on seal placenta and the carcasses of dead seals, whales and penguins, and occasionally eat refuse on land.
Could animals hibernate in Antarctica?
There is no food chain on the Antarctic continent, so no, animals could not hibernate, because there is no way for any land animal to acquire sufficient calories in order to enable hibernation.
How do particular adaptations of animals affect what they eat?
Different animals are adapted to find food in different ways. Chameleons have long tongues so that they can stretch and catch flies with. Giraffes have long necks so that they can reach leaves from the tall trees.
What are broad flat teeth adapted to do?
