Fun Facts About Seals
Seals live along coasts all over the world, from the Arctic to places like California and New England. They're amazing swimmers and divers, but on land they flop and scoot along. With their super-sensitive whiskers, they can even feel fish moving in murky water. Seal babies are called pups and call out to find their moms. If you spot a pup alone on the beach, keep your distance and don't touch it β its mom usually comes back.
