Pinnipeds, often generalized as seals, are a widely distributed and diverse clade of fin-footed, semi-aquatic marine mammals.

They comprise the extant families Odobenidae whose only living member is the walrus, Otariidae, the eared seals which are the sea lions and fur seals, and Phocidae the earless, or true seals.

Seals have streamlined bodies and four limbs that are modified into flippers. Although not as fast in the water as dolphins, seals are more flexible and agile.

They use their front limbs to propel themselves through the water, while phocids and walruses use their hind limbs.

They have hind limbs that can be pulled under the body and used as legs on land.

Fur seals are characterized by their external ears, dense underfur, stiff wiskers, and long, muscular limbs.

They have the ability to rotate their rear limbs forward, supporting their bodies and allowing them to ambulate on land.

In water, their front limbs, measuring about a fourth of their body length, act as oars and can propel them forward for mobility.

The surfaces of these long, paddle-like fore limbs are leathery with small claws.

Seals have a dog-like head, sharp, well-developed canines, sharp eyesight, and keen hearing.
