Default Antarctic animals

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.

Smile favorite Antarctic animals

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.

Default Antarctic beautiful animals

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.

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!

I have a penguin themed Christmas tree. It would be so cool to see the little guys in their natural habitat. I did see them at my local zoo a few weeks ago. That was a ton of fun.

That's just awesome! I'll have to take some more pictures. The foil purple tree didn't do well with the flash, so I'll try again soon. :)

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