Giant Elephant Seals along Ocean Coasts
Elephant seals are among the largest marine mammals that haul out onto land to rest and molt. They spend long months diving in ocean waters before coming ashore on sandy beaches, where they bask together in coastal colonies.
Adaptations of Deep-Diving Seals
These ocean giants can dive down thousands of feet beneath the ocean surface to hunt squid and fish. They hold their breath for over an hour by storing large amounts of oxygen in their blood, making them unmatched deep-sea hunters.

- Snout and face: Dark charcoal with coarse whiskered snout area
