There are no animals that live on the Antarctic continent: it's too cold and there is no food chain.

Sea birds and sea mammals, however, visit Antarctica's beaches to breed. The largest sea bird to do so is the Emperor Penguin. Both Weddell Seals and Leopard Seals are about the same size, and both are larger than the penguins, in terms of weight and length.

Popularity is not a factor in science and Antarctica is a continent dedicated to science. Further, no animal 'lives' on the continent: it's too cold and there is no food chain. Many sea mammals and sea birds come to the continent's beaches to breed.

None. There are many mammals that live in the antarctic region, like cetaceans and pinnipeds, but the cetaceans do not go on land, and the pinninpeds are considered marine mammals rather than land mammals, because they hunt and spend much of their time in water.

No animal 'migrates' in Antarctica. Some penguins come to the continent to breed in the spring and summer.

There are no endangered plants in Antarctica. In fact, only two short grasses grow on the continent, specifically on the Antarctic Peninsula. Otherwise, nothing grows on the continent.

Phytoplankton and Krill. They are the begining of the foodchain, so without them, there is no food chain.
