If there was no ice in the arctic, there would be little surface area for all the land animals.

Two points:
1) The Polar Ice-cap melting would have no effect on sea-level as it is floating sea-ice. It needs the ice cover on land(Greenland, the Antarctic continent, glaciers on mountains) to thaw to raise the sea-level.
2) Large-scale melting of land ice would raise the sea-level, potentially by tens of metres, and the sea would "transgress" across low-lying land; but plenty of land would remain above water. It would not be like that daft Waterworld film whose title sequence is a map of the Americas being totally obliterated! The worst effects would be on humanity, not wildlife.
