The only known warm blooded animals to live in Antarctica are the temporary workers in support of science and the scientists who study the health of planet earth on the continent. Otherwise, sea mammals breed on Antarctica's beaches, but make their homes in sea water.
The population of temporary workers and scientists on the continent may reach 4,500 souls during January.
