Does the earth have a South Magnetic Pole?

The earth has a South Magnetic Pole that corresponds with its North Magnetic Pole, Each of the Magnetic Poles is about one thousand miles away from its geographical pole. This calls for a slight adjustment when a pilot is steering by a magnetic compass,

North Magnetic Pole is an oval area in the neighborhood of North Latitude 71 degrees and West Longitude 96 degrees, This Longitude slices through the central states of Texas Oklahoma, Kansas Iowa and Minnesota, The North Magnetic Pole is near the Boothia Penninsula northwest of Hudson Bay,

The South Magnetic Pole is in the neighborhood of South Latitude 70 degrees and East Longitude 148 degrees. This Longitude slices off the eastern tip of New Guinea and cuts off a half moon of eastern Australia around the town of Sidney. Down it goes to the icy continent of Antarctica to Wilkes Land, The South Magnetic Pole is just west of Ross Sea,
