Marine Mammal Species

Definition of Marine Mammal Species as it relates to Animals, Mammals, Marine Mammals

A Marine Mammal Species is a group of mammals that have adapted to life in aquatic environments, specifically the oceans and seas. These animals share common characteristics such as being warm-blooded, having lungs and breathing air, and bearing live young. Examples include whales, dolphins, porpoises, seals, sea lions, walruses, manatees, and dugongs. They possess unique features for survival in the marine environment such as specialized limbs for swimming or lack thereof, thick layer of blubber to maintain body temperature, and advanced sensory systems for navigation, hunting, and communication. These species face various threats including habitat loss, pollution, climate change, and human activities such as hunting and bycatch, leading to conservation efforts aimed at protecting their populations and preserving their habitats.
