What is unusual about the Seminole's tribe?
The Seminole tribe is unusual for its history of resistance to removal and oppression, notably during the Seminole Wars in the 19th century, which were among the most costly conflicts for the United States. Unlike many Native American tribes, the Seminoles never signed a formal treaty to cede their land, allowing them to maintain a significant presence in Florida. Additionally, the tribe is known for its unique cultural blend, incorporating elements from various Indigenous groups, African American influences, and a distinct adaptation to the subtropical environment of Florida.
How many whale can be born from one mom?
Generally, most species of whales have a baby every two to three years. A female will not become pregnant while she is nursing a baby, and her baby stays with her until it is between one and two years old. The number of babies a whale can have depends on how long she lives.
At birth, a baby manatee, also known as a calf, typically weighs between 60 to 70 pounds (27 to 32 kg) and measures about 4 feet (1.2 meters) in length. They are born fully aquatic and can swim to the surface within minutes of birth to take their first breath. As they grow, they will continue to gain weight and length, reaching adult sizes of up to 1,200 pounds (540 kg) and lengths of 10 to 13 feet (3 to 4 meters).
What do chimpanzees do to take care of their young?
Chimpanzees exhibit strong maternal care for their young, often carrying infants on their bodies for several years. Mothers groom and nurse their offspring, providing essential nutrition and bonding. They also teach their young important social skills and survival tactics through play and interaction, ensuring they learn how to navigate their environment and social structures. Additionally, other members of the group may assist in caregiving, reflecting a communal approach to raising young.
Yes, seals often feed in groups, especially species like harbor seals and gray seals. Group feeding can enhance their hunting efficiency, as they can work together to herd fish and other prey. Additionally, social interactions within groups can provide safety from predators while foraging. However, feeding behavior may vary among different seal species and environmental conditions.
The natural predators, and enemies of the Harp Seal are about the same. The Greenland Shark, Walrus, Polar Bear, and humans are all natural predators of the Harp Seal. But, humans are more than just a predator, they are a threat or enemy too. Humans hunt the Harp Seal on a current basis, but then fishing lines, nets, and other equipment used to capture other species is carelessly left in the water by the fisheries, entangling the Harp Seal. The pollution, trash and plastics dumped in the oceans are an ongoing, and growing threat, along with the destruction, and over use of their habitat by man.

Do female sea lions give milk?
Sea lions DO give milk because they are mammals. That is how they feed their young.
A layer of fat just below the surface of the skin is called blubber .
Eg: Sea Lion , Whale , Seals.
Whales live in all the world's oceans, and some smaller ones in various zoos and artificial habitats.
The largest numbers of whales live in the cooler regions of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, and many in the polar oceans (Arctic, Southern, and southern Indian Oceans). The cooler waters enable the larger species to release excess body heat, which is considerable given their size and metabolism, and most feed on the very small animals (such as krill) that live there.
Because of their very low birth rate, large whales can be greatly reduced in population by hunting, so many countries now have restrictions or outright bans on whaling in their territories. Agreements have been enacted to cover international waters as well.
