Antarctica is a continent: whales are sea mammals. And yes, you can find whales in the water surrounding Antarctica.
There are no animals that are native to Antarctica. However, many sea animals, including penguins visit the beaches in the summer to breed.
Several whale species visit Antarctica, primarily during the summer months when the region is rich in krill, their main food source. Notable species include the humpback whale, minke whale, and blue whale, all of which migrate to feed in the nutrient-rich waters. Additionally, orcas (killer whales) can be found around the Antarctic Peninsula, preying on seals and other marine life. These whales play a crucial role in the Antarctic ecosystem and are a significant attraction for researchers and tourists alike.
