| Moderator Jr Member | Long before March of the Penguins came out, I've been in love with the cute critters who make a go out of life in Antarctica. Penguins, seals, and blue whales all can be found in abundance in Antarctica. The roster of Antarctic animals is quite spectacular.

| true that! you wont find more amazing wildlife in the world like you do in Antarctica. My favorite Antartica animal is the whale. There are eight species of whale found in Antarctic waters such as the Blue, Fin, Humpback, Minke, Orca, Sei, Southern Right and Sperm. Of these, the most impressive is the Blue Whale personally. |

| on any antarctic cruise you will see a variety of penguins, narwhal, polar bears, bowhead whales and walrus, though some Antarctic species have been taken to the verge of extinction which is a pity! by the way, did you know Blue whales are the largest animals on the planet? and they are just one of the whale species that you can expect to view on your Antarctica tour. |

| Moderator Jr Member | I would love to see all of these creatures up close. And I can't imagine the scale of the blue whale...they are amazing creatures, that's for sure!

| @mitraveler: I love penguins too. In fact, I have a penguin theme for my phone and a penguin themed christmas skirt that my grandma handnitted for me. Never thought about a penguin themed Christmas tree..sound really cool though. Have you got pictures of it? |

| Moderator Jr Member | Did you get to see the big emperor penguins or another type? They're all pretty cool. I totally agree!
