In 1915, Ernest Shackelton sent a ship with dog teams to Scott’s Discover Hut with the task of hauling supplies toward the South Pole that he would use to help him cross the continent. These are some of the crates food and dog biscuits that were left behind. The cold, dry air has preserved them. Near McMurdo Station, Antarctica.
