There are a few theories as to why Hawaiian 'Monk' Seals are called so:
- They have a preference for solitude, much like monks
- They have a round head covered in short hairs, giving them a monk-like appearance
- They have folds of skin around their necks, which kind of look like the hood of a monk's robe
