Antarctica hasn‘t always been located at
the South Pole. It has drifted, like the
other continents, and has ranged from
the equator to the South Pole. During the
time of the dinosaurs, Antarctica was
more temperate and housed dinosaurs and
many other life forms. Now, there is very
little indigenous( 本地的 ) life.
