Link to the National Science Foundation. The NSF has both an Arctic and an Antarctic program. Check them out.

Link to Ice Age cave art of penguins. Check out the cave map, then click on "pingouins". When much of the fresh water on Earth was bound up in glaciers during the last  Ice Age, sea levels were lower and the entrance to the cave was above water. The entrance to this cave is under water now. The cave, with pictures of penguins in it, is in France. Think about that.
