Seals are aquatic mammals. There are about 32 species of seals. There are two types of seals: the earless, or true, seals (family Phocidae); and the eared seals (family Otariidae), which are sea lions and fur seals. In addition to the presence of external ears, eared seals have longer flippers than earless seals.
