Ultimately, with the help of more sled dogs, Roald Amundsen emerged as the first explorer to reach the Antarctic Pole and return safely, while Robert Scott perished on his way back to Main Camp, a journey marred with much regret.
If only Robert Scott had taken a sufficient number of dogs, he might not have failed to make it out of Antarctica.
Because in Antarctic exploration, dogs are not only used for transportation; they are also a source of Meat in desperate times, ensuring that the explorers don't starve in Antarctica.
Learning from Robert Scott's lesson, the Australasian Antarctic expedition team also prepared to bring a large number of Cold-Resistant Dogs, which could be used for transport as well as emergency food supplies.
As for the composition of the expedition team members, besides the leader Charles Puter, there is a geographer, two soldiers, and one survival Expert, a total of five people.
