Land And Sea Animals

Despite the sightings of this species on land, it could also be considered an aquatic animal. Some have been said to travel long distances in the open ocean, and they can survive both on land and in the water. But the monk seals can only spend limited time underwater.

After 20 minutes, the monk seal would need to come up for air, but it’s still amazing they can stay so long underwater. We wouldn’t manage more than a few seconds ourselves. Sometimes, they even take naps in the water but come up to breathe occasionally with their eyes still closed. Isn’t that amazing?
