Secondly‚ the Southern Ocean close to Antarctica. The arctic ocean is the habitat of the penguins we call Emperor penguins. the arctic ocean is five million square miles big to a depth of eight-teen thousand. The Atlantic Ocean runs 32 million square miles‚ the arctic ocean is five million square miles
