Why were dogs banned in Antarctica under Annex II to the Environmental Protocol Conservation of Antarctic Fauna and Flora and what happened to the removed dogs?
Dogs in Antarctica were always working animals, but they were otherwise untrained. There were occasions when the dogs would become loose, when they would chase the native animals that visited the continent to breed. This was natural behaviour for the dogs. It was discovered that the dogs could transmit diseases to the breeding marine animals. Based on their ability to transmit disease, and their natural instincts, dogs were banned from Antarctica. Dogs exported from Antarctica found homes with people who wanted to keep them as pets, or they were otherwise employed as working dogs in areas where working animals support transport.
