Unlike seals, which have small ear flaps, sea lions have external ear flaps that are more prominent. This anatomical difference is one of the key features that distinguishes sea lions from true seals. Additionally, sea lions are generally more social and agile on land, often using their flippers to walk, whereas seals tend to be more cumbersome on land.
Yes. They have small little ears
elephant have ear flaps so they can pick up good signal
The Harp seal is a true seal. It has no ear flaps and uses its rear flippers for propulsion and its front flippers for steering. And most Artic seals are True seals.
they have ear flaps as they are in the water to reduce the amount of water inside the ear they flap it out and shake their booty
no
The true seal family, scientifically known as Phocidae, comprises marine mammals commonly referred to as "true seals." Unlike their relatives, the eared seals, true seals lack external ear flaps and have a more streamlined body adapted for swimming. They are found in various oceanic environments and are known for their ability to dive and hunt for fish and other marine life. Common examples include the harbor seal and the elephant seal.
Large ear flaps in some animals, such as elephants, are important for regulating body temperature. The blood vessels in the ears help dissipate heat, allowing the animal to cool down. Additionally, the ear flaps can help amplify sound for better hearing.
The ear flaps are called 'leather'.
The ear flaps help to direct sound into the inner ear; elephants have very good hearing. The ear flaps have many blood vessels that help to cool the elephant when flapped in the air. Also, a distressed or charging elephant will thrust out their ear-flaps to make them appear more threatening, and signalling their anger/distress.
A basic Google search turned up several crocheted hats with ear flaps. I've included links to some below. I particularly liked the kitty one.
It is a camel.
No, harp seals do not have the pinna that we associate with the outer (visible) part of the ear. This does not mean they cannot hear; they hear well under and above water, although their hearing is not as sensitive above water as a human's.
