And how do these creatures move? I know on land we say we run or walk or jog, but for swimming it seems quite generic, just swimming.
knowledge: Aquatic locomotion is biologically propelled motion through a liquid medium.
response: I'm not aware if their movement is called this but there is aquatic locomotion, which is biologically propelled motion through liquid mediums.
