Received Date: Aug 03, 2023 / Published Date: Aug 29, 2023
Abstract
The Antarctic, a vast icy wilderness at the southernmost tip of the world, may appear desolate and lifeless at first glance. However, hidden beneath the frigid waters lies an ecosystem teeming with diverse marine life, and at the heart of this delicate web of life are the mighty krill. These small, shrimp-like crustaceans play a crucial role in sustaining the Antarctic ecosystem, supporting a wide array of species, from the smallest fish to the largest mammals.
