There are no plants in Antarctica, although there is lichen. This situation means that any animal that eats plants needs to feed in the ocean, like a manatee, since those cold shores are very rich in nutrients and plant material. However, the water is not warm enough for manatees or dugongs. Fish, then, are the main herbivores in the Antarctic.

There are no herbivores on the Antarctic continent, because nothing grows there.
