The marine biome covers most of the Pacific Ocean, Indian Ocean, Southern Ocean, Atlantic Ocean and Artic Ocean. The marine biome covers about 70% of the earth earning the title of the largest biome on earth!
Animals that are seen in the marine biome are fish, seal lions, sea otters, whales, sea turtles, jelly fish, starfish, crustaceans, sea anemones, mollusk, sharks and much more. The marine biome is also home to the largest mammal on earth the, blue whale with the longest one measuring around 98ft.
Sea otters generally live near shore and by kelp forests. She otters mainly eat mollusk sand sea urchins.sea urchins gradually eat away at the kelp destroying habitats for many fish and sea creatures.By eating sea urchins otters are preserving the kelp forest habitat
The deepest elevation in the marine biome is the marina trench at about 35,800 ft bellow sea level. Mount Everest stands at about 29,029 above sea level! That marina trench is pretty deep!
In some ways the marine biome can be the most used biome.
