A breathing hole is an opening in ice or snow that allows air access for animals, particularly seals, to breathe while submerged. These holes are crucial for their survival, as they provide a means to surface for air in icy environments. Breathing holes can also serve as key locations for predators like polar bears, who hunt seals. In a broader context, the term can refer to any small opening that allows for the exchange of air in a confined space.
