sea snake
A sea snake is a type of venomous snake that has adapted to subaquatic lifestyles in tropical and subtropical marine environments. They have several specific physiological adaptations for marine life such as the ability to breathe through their skin, paddle-like tails for swimming, and the ability to eliminate excess salts from their bodies. There are about 70 species of sea snakes, most belonging to the family Hydrophiinae.
