Question (En)
What impact does tourism have on the fauna and flora of Antarctica?
Answer (En)
Tourism in Antarctica can have significant impacts on its flora and fauna. The presence of tourists can disturb wildlife, such as penguins and seals, leading to stress and potential changes in behavior, including abandonment of nests or pups. Human activity, including walking and camping, can damage fragile vegetation and disturb delicate ecosystems. Introduced species, often arriving via tourist equipment, can threaten native flora and fauna by competing for resources or introducing diseases. Moreover, pollution from waste and fuel can contaminate pristine environments. To mitigate these effects, strict regulations and guidelines are enforced to limit tourist numbers and ensure responsible practices. Adherence to these measures helps protect the unique Antarctic environment and its wildlife while allowing for controlled, sustainable tourism.
