Hot Middle, Cold Top and Bottom

The lands around the middle of the Earth are warm all year because the Sun shines straight at them. The very top and bottom of the Earth, the North and South Poles, are covered in ice and are very cold.

Examples

  • Parrots and monkeys live in warm rainforests near the middle of the Earth.
  • Polar bears live on the ice near the North Pole, and penguins live near the South Pole.
