Seals are known as the dogs of the sea. =D

The Hebrew name for a seal is "sea dog" (כֶּלֶב יָם)

That's fascinating. Seals are called Sea Dogs in Mandarin too.

The Portland Maine minor league baseball team are also called the Sea Dogs. :)

That's a sea lion, so a sea cat rather than a sea dog...

That's a sea lion, not a seal. Unlike seals, sea lions have elbows, also ears. But I think that in Hebrew it's all kelev yam, sea dog, there's no separate word for this separate species.
