Otariidae (Eared Seals) - English
URL: http://www.thebigzoo.com/zoo/Otariidae.asp

The fourteen species of eared seal make the family Otariidae. Eared seals can be distinguished from true seals by the use of their forelimbs for swimming. This has allowed their hind limbs to keep their usefulness on land. Eared seals are physically a uniform group, with males weighing significantly more than females.
