Animals With No Legs

Seals Seals are marine mammals belonging to the family Phocidae. They are found worldwide, except in Antarctica. There are two species of seals: ringed seals (Phoca hispida) and bearded seals (Erignathus barbatus).

Snakes Snakes aren’t always pretty creatures. They can be dangerous, venomous, and even deadly. In fact, some species are known to kill humans. Some snakes also have a reputation for being ugly.

Sea lions Sea lions do not have legs, they have flippers. Flippers are webbed appendages used for swimming. They are located on the front of the body, just behind the forelimbs. Sea lions use their flippers to swim through the water.

Legless lizard Legless lizards do not have legs. They are reptiles, which means they are cold blooded animals. The only thing they have is skin, scales, and claws. Legless lizards are a type of lizard found in Australia. They lack limbs, but they don’t seem to suffer from any other disadvantages.

Earthworms Earthworms don’t have legs, they crawl around on their bellies. They move by using muscles in their bodies. Earthworms also have a special organ called a slime gland that produces a sticky substance that helps them stick to surfaces such as soil or wood.

Snails Snails don’t have legs, they crawl along the ground using their tentacles.  Snails are invertebrates that belong to the phylum Mollusca. They are the only mollusks without shells.

Walruses Walruses do not have legs, they have flippers. They use these flippers to swim through the water. Walruses are large marine mammals found along the northern coastlines of North America and Europe. They are also known as sea cows because they spend much of their time floating on the water surface.

Sponge A sponge moves due to surface tension. The water molecules at the surface of the sponge repel each other and pull the sponge towards the air. This causes the sponge to move away from the water.

Sea urchin Sea urchins are marine animals that live in shallow waters around the world. They look like little rocks covered in spines. But did you know they have legs or not? These creatures have five pairs of appendages called ambulacrae that allow them to move through water and crawl along the seafloor.

Caecilians Have you ever heard of caecilians? They are amphibious creatures that look like lizards or salamanders. Some scientists believe they are related to snakes, frogs and newts. Caecilians are found in South America, Asia and Africa. These animals have no legs, instead using their tails as limbs.
