Marine Fissipeds
There are only a handful of ocean mammals that don't fall into the category of Pinniped or Cetacean, but rather classified as a Marine Fissiped.
Polar bears are large carnivorous mammals found in the Arctic. They are known for their thick white fur and their ability to survive in the harsh Arctic environment. They are the largest land carnivore and their diet primarily consists of seal.
Sea otters are marine mammals found along the coastlines of the North Pacific Ocean. They have dense fur to keep them warm in cold water and they are known for using tools, such as rocks, to open their food. Sea otters were once heavily hunted for their fur, and their populations have not fully recovered, and they are considered as a threatened species.
