Sticker activity
Stick some fish on the page for this seal to eat.
These seals are very rare.
Do you like to eat fish? What kinds of fish have you eaten?
While swimming, a seal closes its nostrils to keep out the water.
The seal swishes its back flippers from side to side to move. Its front flippers help it turn and stop. Big eyes help it look for food in the dark ocean.
These seals often hide in caves to stay away from people.
A Mediterranean monk seal eats fish, octopuses, squid, eels and lobsters.
Long whiskers feel out for fish swimming by. The seal catches one and swallows it whole. Gulp!
Can you think of another animal with whiskers?…
