The true seals, orphocids, are what many people think of when they picture a seal.

Here’s what you need to know about each species.
More commonly known as the eared seals, the otariids are the second family of pinnipeds. This family includes all of the sea lions and fur seals. As the family’s name suggests, all of these species have small visible ear flaps, which the true seals don’t have. Additionally, otariids are much more mobile on land than true seals because they have lar...

Seals are pinnipeds, a group of animals with three separate families—phocidae (eared seals), otaridae (non-eared seals), and odobenidae (walruses)—that are the only mammals that feed in the water and breed on land.
The Australian sea lion and Australian and New Zealand fur seals are the only species that breed on and around Australia’s mainland and nearshore islands. These and the Antarctic and subantarctic fur seals – which breed on Australian subantarctic islands – belong to the ‘eared’ pinniped family: all have small outwardly visible ears.
A seahorse (also written sea-horse and sea horse) is any of 46 species of small marine bony fish in the genus Hippocampus. "Hippocampus" comes from the Ancient Greek hippókampos (ἱππόκαμπος), itself from híppos (ἵππος) meaning "horse" and kámpos (κάμπος) meaning "sea monster" or "sea animal".
