What are the different types of seals?Updated 5 months ago
There are two types of seals: true seals, which are earless (like the elephant seal) and flop around on land on their bellies, and eared seals (like sea lions) whose rear flippers help them “walk.” All seals, sea lions, and walruses are pinnipeds—marine mammals with front and rear flippers who live both in water and on land.
