What else can I help you with?
What is the breeding seasons for antarctica land based animals?
There are no land-based animals in Antarctica: it's too cold to support any kind of food chain.
Are there animals living in Antarctica?
No. Antarctica is too cold and there is no food chain to support life for animals. Breeding sea birds and sea mammals, however, collect on Antarctica's beaches during breeding season.
Why are animals hunted in Antarctica?
No animals are 'hunted in Antarctica', except for animals that hunt each other during breeding season, in order to feed their young.
Where can you find wildlife in Antarctica?
You will only find animals on or near Antarctica's beaches during breeding season -- no animals live on the continent.
Is it true that animals in Antarctica only live on its edge?
What's true is that no animals live on the Antarctica, but that a few sea birds and aquatic mammals use the beaches in Antarctica for breeding.
Besides humans what other inhabitants do you find in Antarctica?
None.Some penguins, other birds and some seals come to the Antarctic continent during their breeding seasons. When this time is finished, the animals return to the sea.
What animals are at Mawson base in Antarctica?
Mawson Station is situated on the coast, so sea animals visit near the station during breeding season, including penguins and seals. No animals are kept on Antarctica, because they can transmit disease to the sea mammals, terrorize them or otherwise disturb the breeding animals.
What animals would people see in Antarctica?
During breeding season, you'll see sea birds and sea mammals on the beaches. Otherwise, you see no animals in Antarctica.
What problems do the animals have in Antarctica?
Animals don't typically have 'problems' as we humans have problems. There are no endangered species breeding on Antarctica's beaches, and the food chain among the animals means that some animals are consumed by other animals as food.

No animals live in Antarctica. Several types of whales, however, come to the beaches in Antarctica where penguins and seals breed, because the breeding animals are food for the whales.
When do albatrosses go to Antarctica?
All animals that visit Antarctica, do so to breed. Otherwise all animals live in the sea, including albatross. Breeding on Antarctica is a survival strategy because there are no land predators there, except other breeding adults that prey on newborns in order to feed the predators' young.
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.
