Monk seals are native to the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands and the main Hawaiian Islands in the United States as well as certain regions of the Mediterranean Sea. They are endemic to these areas, meaning they are found exclusively in these locations. Additionally, monk seals are critically endangered, with their populations facing numerous threats such as habitat loss, entanglement in fishing gear, and disease.
