Adaptations

Dugongs have some adaptations that help them to survive:
  • The upper lip is covered in bristles to help find and eat sea grass
  • Their nose is at the top of their head so that they can have as much of their body in water when they come up for water
  • The eyes and ears are on the side of their head so that they can see potential predators
  • They have a flattened tale, to make their movements quicker and more graceful.
