Difference between Aquatic mammal and Marine mammal

Aquatic mammal vs. Marine mammal

Aquatic and semiaquatic mammals are a diverse group of mammals that dwell partly or entirely in bodies of water. Marine mammals are aquatic mammals that rely on the ocean and other marine ecosystems for their existence.
