An insightful look at the unique survival tactics, resting habits, and defensive behaviors of seals.
Highlights
Breathing and Water Play00:00:00
Seals often play with water flow by blocking drain holes with their mouths. They are safe from drowning due to nostrils that act as waterproof switches, allowing them to hold their breath for up to 30 minutes.
Sleeping Habits00:00:19
When sleeping underwater, seals anchor themselves using seaweed or rocks to prevent drifting. On land, they remain vigilant, waking periodically to scan for threats before returning to rest.
Behavior of Baby Seals00:00:39
Baby seals are less gentle than adults and may attempt to bite if disturbed. However, their chubby physique often prevents them from successfully reaching those who bother them, forcing them to simply ignore the intruder.
