Это, вероятно, зависит от того кем была организована экспедиция, чье было судно и пр. Если экспедиция была организована, например, чем-то, что базируется в США, то ко всем членам экспедиции применялись законы США. Последние же, как пишет Википедия, имеет целую серию законов, которые регулируют поведение в Антарктиде. Кроме всего прочего запрещается брать животных в руки.
For example, the Antarctic Conservation Act, 16 U.S.C. section 2401 et seq., provides civil and criminal penalties for the following activities, unless authorized by regulation of statute: The taking of native mammals or birds; the introduction of nonindigenous plants and animals; entry into specially protected or scientific areas; the discharge or disposal of pollutants; and the importation into the US of certain items from Antarctica. Violation of the Antarctic Conservation Act carries penalties of up to $10,000 in fines and 1 year in prison.
Может быть и так и так. В оригинале документа поясняется (Antarctic Conservation Act of 1978 section 1):
1. Taking native mammals or birds It is unlawful, unless authorized by permit, to take antarctic native mammals or birds. To take means to remove, harass, molest, harm, pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture, restrain, or tag a native mammal or bird or to try to do so. For example, herding a seal or a penguin into position for a photograph constitutes an illegal taking. An ornithologist with a grant to study penguin population dynamics must have a permit before banding the penguins.(A grant and a permit are two different things.) A scientist permitted to handle ten skuas would be performing an illegal taking if he or she handled eleven. Entering a bird nesting area or approaching seals with their pups will almost certainly stimulate agitation or defensive behavior. Any action that alters the normal behavior of wildlife may be considered harassment and therefore a taking.
