Welcome to the Antarctic Origami Sanctuary!

The Antarctic Origami Sanctuary (AOS) is home to dozens of hastily folded origami animals. Our dedicated staff provides food, shelter and friendship for these outcasts. Located 84 miles south-southeast of McMurdo Station, the AOS covers a vast 0.000023 acres of otherwise uninhabited land. This extreme isolation is the perfect environment for origami to come alive!
​

Meet the Animals

Each month, our least popular resident is recycled. We find that this policy keeps the animals on their best behavior. Help us decide who stays and who turns to pulp!
