A Watery Life for Seals by Precious


At the Auckland Zoo the seals habitat is aquatic. The majority of its habitat is water. The seals enjoy swimming swiftly in the water. There are logs and caves for them to swim around which are obstacles for them. There is a small space for the seals to relax and sunbath. There are lots of rocks to keep them entertained. The zoo works hard to enrich the habitat of the animals. There is a big wide glass that prevents us from coming close to the seals habitat. In the wild seals are normally found in cold waters and rocky beaches. They are mostly found in cold regions. The warmer the region is, the skinnier they are because of the lack of food. Seals prefer saltier water. They are drawn to low tide areas so they can sunbath although they prefer very cold water. Seals look for deeper water because they love diving and exploring around their habitat. They like places with sunbaths. They are drawn to places with different shapes and sizes of rocks.

Well done Precious. It is an amazing animal as it slides through the ocean. The aquarium is just like being under the ocean. Visitors at the zoo love to see the sea lions.
