Strange but true.

The biggest animal found on inland Antarctica is the housefly.

The Antarctic notothenia fish has a protein in its blood that acts like antifreeze and stops the fish freezing in icy sea.


Penguins are so well insulated by fat that they overheat when they are active.
They have to stand with their beaks open to cool down.

The Adelie penguin can leap four times its own height to get from sea to land.
