There are no indigenous inhabitants of Antarctica. The few that live there are research scientists. They survive by living in specially designed housing structures and wearing specialised clothing. Also because humans are warm blooded and lose heat very quickly in freezing temperatures, they have to eat a diet extreamely high in calories to give their bodies enough energy to keep warm.
