No penguins live at the South Pole because it's too far from the sea! Of the 18 species of penguin, only 5 live in Antarctica, and all but the emperor penguin leave Antarctica in the winter. The emperor penguin nests no more than 30 miles inland --- still 1470 miles from the south pole!
Another Answer
Penguins are sea birds and make their homes in the sea where they find food. Four types of penguins breed on Antarctica's beaches, including the Emperor, Adelie, Chinstrap and Gentoo.
The closest open water to the South Pole is about 750 miles, and the elevation of the South Pole is higher than 9,300 feet.
Antarctica is too cold to support animal life of any kind, and there is no food chain there.

What animals live in the south pole but not in the north pole?
Many people consider that the South Pole is the same as the Antarctic, but in fact the South Pole is just a theoretical point in Antarctica. This question gives answers to what creatures live in the Antarctic region, generally in the surrounding ocean. The Antarctic continent itself is a desert, and no animals live on Antarctica: it's too cold and there is no food chain. There are four species of penguins which breed on Antarctica's beaches: Adelie, Emperor, Chinstrap and Gentoo penguins. The Antarctic is not their only range. Other birds which breed on the coastal fringes of Antarctica and the islands, visiting Antarctic waters, include various species of albatross, cormorant, fulmar, gull (kelp gull), petrel, sheathbill, skua, and the Arctic tern which migrates from the Arctic to the Antarctic every year. Seals which live in the Southern Ocean which surrounds the continent, include the Southern Elephant seal, Crabeater, Antarctic Fur, Leopard, Ross and Weddell seals. Whales known to frequent the Antarctic waters include the Blue whale, Fin, Humpback, Minke, Orca, Southern Right, Sei and Sperm whales. Fish include the Antarctic cod, Patagonian toothfish and Icefish. Squid also live in the Antarctic waters.
