| Summary |
Antarctica is the wildest, coldest, most isolated continent on Earth. Covered and surrounded by 90 % of the world's ice, its 14 million square kilometers are doubled each winter by the freezing of the sea. Yet this inhospitable landscape is home to a surprisingly rich variety of wildlife, much of it unique to the region |
