Ecotourism shouldn’t be allowed in Antarctica because tourists will disturb wildlife in Antarctica.
Antarctica is a fragile land and the smallest actions could cause severe consequences to the wildlife.
For example,the ships which carry tourists may cause oil spills which is extremely harmful to the wildlife.Marine life will be disturbed as animals will be poisoned after consuming the oil,thus causing imbalance in the food chain.Feathers of birds will be contaminated by oil and cannot fly away.From this we can see how tourism disturbs wildlife in the region and cause serious damage .
