*** About Seals: Seals are marine animals often found in colder climates, renowned for their agility both in water and on land. Adapted to life in aquatic environments, seals possess streamlined bodies and limbs modified into flippers, making them excellent swimmers. Their thick layers of blubber protect them against freezing temperatures, while their whiskers help detect prey in murky waters. Seals are crucial to marine ecosystems, influencing food webs through their diet of fish and invertebrates. They are also culturally significant in various indigenous communities, symbolizing wisdom and protection. The conservation status of seals varies by species, with some like the Mediterranean monk seal being critically endangered due to habitat destruction, pollution, and human interaction.
