Standard Trait value: Aquatic


Standard Trait value: Aquatic
Standard Trait: Taxon: Locomotion: Eisenberg 1981 (n/a)
Standard Trait value: Aquatic
Display order: 30
Description: Category 3 includes forms that carry out most of the life cycle in water. This includes the cetaceans and sirenians as well as the pinnipeds. Although certain members of the order Pinnipedia confine part of their life cycle to land-namely, giving birth, mating, and nursing the young - a goodly percentage of their life is spent in the water, and thus they are included in this third category.
