Continent 7: Antarctica: Take Your Best Shot

TARTALOM ISMERTETő

Life on Antarctica has to endure the harshest climate on earth in order to survive and thrive as a species. Much of Antarctic life congregates in the ocean where more nutrients and prey are available. Scientists therefore have focused their research in these icy waters in an effort to determine how both climate change and direct human interference has affected the marine ecosystem. Whales biopsies determine how diet has been changing over time and the dire need to reverse climate change effects before its too late. Life here for humans on the other hand, can be put in danger when the machinery and transportation they rely on in this isolated part of the world fails them. In Antarctica both humans and animals alike do what it takes to adapt and survive.
