There are many, many different kinds of marine mammals, such as:
Dolphins,Whales, Seals, ect.
Any mammal is classified by:
-birth, if it has live birth or not
-mothers milk, if they nurse their young

Even though the majority of marine mammals dont have fur or
body hair they are still considered mammals because of the fact
that they still fit into the category with everything else.
