Tuesdays in the Field – Marine Mammal Madness

Mar 14

Marine Mammal Madness

What do sea otters​, dolphins, and seals all have in common? They are all marine mammals. ​Marine mammals are animals that possess mammalian characteristics (produce milk, breathe through lungs, are warm-blooded and have hair) and live most or all of their lives in/near the ocean. They come in all shapes and sizes and have unique adaptations that allow them to thrive in diverse habitats. Join us in March for Tuesdays in the Field and get ready for some Marine Mammal Madness.
