Most animals are good swimmers. In fact, they can swim from the time they’re born. But some animals have to be taught how to swim. This group includes people, gorillas and chimpanzees. Once people learn how to swim, they can swim for long distances if they practice enough. Human beings must learn to swim, but most other animals are born with the ability. The bodies of all animals, including humans, are naturally buoyant. With most animals the nose stays above water. This determines whether or not an animal can swim without having to learn how. With their nose above the water, most animals can breathe naturally as they swim. People and apes, however, must learn to swim without taking in water through their nose or mouth.
