Two types of poles

Can you guess where can you find penguin and polar bear in out earth??? Maybe some of you guess in the zoo. That is correct but the real habitat for this animals is in pole... there are two pole which are south pole and north pole.

The north pole is the northernmost point on Earth, lying diametrically opposite the south pole. At the north pole all directions point south, it longitude can be defined as any degree value.
