It’s just too cold to support very many life forms! Now let’s meet some of the Antarctica’s animals. Weddell Seal They are the southernmost pinniped in the world. Males are generally smaller than females. Interestingly, a newborn pup has a coat of long hair, which they will shed within the first month as the protective layer of their body is developed. Blue Whale Named for its bluegray color, this huge animal may grow to be roughly 100 feet long and weigh more than 120 tons! A blue whale eats about 4 tons of krill per day during the feeding season! This means that about 40 million krill are eaten every day for six months by a blue whale! The tongue of the blue whale can be as big as a Volkswagen ! The blue whale is the loudest animal on earth!
