There isn`t much life in the Antarctic. Apart from a few herbivorous Antarctic creatures, all animals on the southernmost continent are predators. There isn`t much life in the Antarctic. Because the continent is almost entirely covered by ice and snow, there`s no real room for plants to grow. There are a few mosses and grasses that survive in the harsh conditions, and two flowering plants. Otherwise, plant-life is nearly nonexistent on land. The water is a different question: Phytoplankton are able to survive in the cold waters, and get their energy from the sun. Krill eat the phytoplankton, and apart from some zooplankton and bottom-dwelling creatures, that`s basically the summary of herbivorous Antarctic creatures; everything else is a predator.
