aquatic animals
Creatures inhabiting water
Animals that live in or spend most of their time in water.
The term covers a broad range—fish, whales, seals, frogs, turtles, and countless invertebrates.
Some are fully aquatic, never leaving the water; others are semi-aquatic, dividing time between water and land.
The zoo's aquatic animals include otters, penguins, and manatees.
