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.
