Krill, Euphausia superba, is a sea creature that forms the base of the short food chain in the Southern Ocean that surrounds the Antarctic continent.
No animals live on the continent, but many sea birds and sea mammals visit its beaches to breed. Their only source of food is in the ocean.
Krill are sea creatures and survive in the supremely productive environment of the Southern Ocean which surrounds the Antarctic continent.
There are no krill in Antarctica: it is a continent.
The krill around Antarctica, Euphousia superba, forms the basis of the food chain in the Southern Ocean, which surrounds the continent.
Krill do not live on the Antarctic continent, since it is a marine animal.
Krill plays a very important part in Antarctica's ecosystem, and it is all to do with the food chain. Krill is one of the smallest animals, by definitely not one of the least important! So, the krill is just wandering along when it gets eaten by something like a penguin, the penguin will then be eaten by a seal, which may then be eaten by a killer whale. So, if you look at it, one would not survive without the other. So if we were to take the krill away from the penguin then the penguin would die out, causing the seal to die out, causing the killer whale to die out, you probably get the picture!
It is very important to whales for the reason that it is part of their daily diet along with keeping their population up. infomation by: shady lol:)
The Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, are native to the Southern Ocean: this is their home.
