Aquatic Mammals

It is highly unlikely for a saltwater crocodile to kill an Orca, as Orca whales are much larger and more powerful predators. Crocodiles are typically ambush predators that target smaller prey in the water, whereas Orcas are apex predators that have been known to hunt and kill crocodiles in their habitat.

A female whale is called a cow, and the male is called a bull.

well its not because there is no fish that eats plants

It is estimated that around 100,000 marine animals die each year as a result of plastic bag pollution. This includes animals such as sea turtles, whales, and seabirds who mistake plastic bags for food or become entangled in them.

Whales produce sound through structures in their bodies called "phonic lips," which vibrate and emit sounds. These sounds can range from low-frequency rumblings to high-frequency clicks and whistles, depending on the species. Whales use vocalizations for communication, navigation, and locating prey in their underwater environments.

No, whales do not have two brains. They have a single brain like other mammals, but it is highly complex and adapted for their aquatic lifestyle. The belief that whales have two brains may be a misunderstanding of their large brain size and unique neurological adaptations.

The largest member of the order Carnivora is the polar bear (Ursus maritimus), which can weigh up to 1,500 pounds and reach lengths of over 10 feet.

A whale's tail, also known as a fluke, can vary in size depending on the species. On average, a whale's fluke can be between 10 to 12 feet wide.

Walruses do not hibernate, but they do migrate with the changing seasons. They travel long distances in search of food and suitable breeding grounds. In the winter, they often migrate to warmer waters with more abundant food sources.

Sea creatures breathe underwater using gills, which extract oxygen from the water. Gills are equipped with thin membranes that allow oxygen to pass through and carbon dioxide to be released. This process enables sea creatures to extract oxygen from the water in order to survive.

They are mermaids....... they live under water.

Sponges are basket-shaped creatures that live in colonies attached to surfaces underwater. They are filter feeders that rely on water flow to bring them food.

Pilot whales typically have 13-16 pairs of ribs, for a total of 26-32 individual ribs.

Arctic animals that eat seaweed include walruses, some species of seals, and certain species of fish such as the Arctic cod and the Arctic char. These animals rely on seaweed as a source of food and nutrients in their cold, harsh environment.

Some examples of harmless sea creatures include jellyfish, sea stars, sea anemones, and certain species of small fish like clownfish or damselfish. These creatures generally do not pose a threat to humans and are essential parts of the marine ecosystem.

Well you can name all the sea creatures discovered but it would take months! And it is not possible to name ALL of the sea creatures living today, most of the earth is covered in water, and we haven't even discovered half of it!

Indricotherium is an extinct early relative of modern rhinos that lived during the late Oligocene and early Miocene Epochs of the Cenozoic Era. It was also the largest land mammal ever to live on land, at about 25 feet

long, 17 feet tall, and weighing nearly 18 tons. In terms of weight, it was four times larger than a modern day bull elephant and rivaled the size of large sauropod dinosaurs that lived during the Mesozoic. Fossils of indricotherium have been unearthed in the Baluchistan province of Pakistan.

Whales play a critical role in the marine ecosystem as they help regulate the populations of their prey, such as krill, fish, and squid. Their massive bodies also store large amounts of carbon, which helps mitigate climate change. In addition, whales are important for tourism and inspire awe and wonder in people around the world.

Male dolphins typically do not take a direct role in calf care. It is the female dolphins, including other female members of the pod, that are primarily responsible for raising and caring for the calves, while males may provide protection to the group as a whole.

An aquatic herbivore is an animal that lives primarily in water and feeds on plants or algae. Examples include manatees, sea turtles, and some species of fish like the parrotfish.

Yes, whales can drown. Despite being marine mammals, they still need to breathe air, so if they are unable to reach the surface to breathe, they can drown. This can happen if a whale is entangled in fishing gear or stranded on land.

The deepest diving marine mammal is the Cuvier's beaked whale, which has been recorded diving to depths of over 9,800 feet (3,000 meters). This species is known for their remarkable ability to dive to extreme depths in search of their primary prey, deep-water squid.

Sea lions have special whisker-like structures on their faces called vibrissae. The vibrissae are filled with nerves so that the sea lion can feel with them, and surrounded by muscles so that the sea lion can move them. The sea lion can use them to balance and hold a ball, much like a human balancing something on his/her fingertips.

Baby whales are called calves. Just like baby cows, but way bigger and way cooler. So next time you see a cute little whale, you can say "aww, look at that adorable calf!"
