I debated deleting the above answer because it is SO wrong - but left it for others' amusement.

Polar bears only live near the NORTH pole. The closest any come to the South pole are a few in zoos.

Animals that are endemic to Antarctica include several types of birds, several kinds of seals, and the Belgica antarctica, a wingless midge (the only true insect found on the mainland).

Birds:

penguins (several kinds)

albatrosses (several kinds)

petrels (several kinds)

cormorants (2 kinds)

Yellow-billed pintail duck

Snowy sheathbill

skuas (2 kinds)

Kelp gull

terns (2 kinds)

Seals:

Arctic fur seal

Southern elephant seal

Leopard seal

Weddell seal

Crabeater seal

Ross seal

In addition, a variety of cold-water fish, several kinds of whales, dolphins & porpoises, and thousands of other marine organisms live in the waters off the coast of Antarctica.
