Do People Live in The North Pole?
The true geographic North Pole is bereft of vegetation. Trees need soil to flourish. As the North Pole is composed of random chunks of ice in close proximity, there is no way that growth can occur. Then there are months of darkness, lasting roughly between October and February, wherein plants wouldn’t be able to survive in the absence of light to carry out photosynthesis for survival. The North Pole is clearly unwelcoming for plants and trees, but it’s also inhospitable for animals. Arctic foxes, polar bears, and reindeer, which are found in nearby Arctic regions, seldom migrate to the true North Pole due to unpredictable climatic conditions. As the ice constantly moves and even shrinks during the summer, it doesn’t serve as a good habitat for migratory animals. However, even despite these harsh conditions, polar bears, arctic foxes, and walruses are occasionally spotted at the true North Pole.
