Are seals in the sunlit zone?

Seals are typically found in various marine environments, including the sunlit zone, also known as the euphotic zone, where sunlight penetrates and supports photosynthesis. This zone extends from the surface down to about 200 meters (656 feet) in the ocean. Seals often inhabit coastal areas within this zone to access food sources like fish and squid. However, they can also dive deeper into darker waters for foraging, depending on the species and available prey.
