Sea Pigs live in nearly every ocean except for the North Atlantic and East Pacific

Scotoplanes, like many sea cucumbers, often occur in huge densities, sometimes numbering in the hundreds when observed. Early collections have recorded 300 to 600 individual specimens per trawl. Sea pigs are also known to host different parasitic invertebrates, including gastropods (snails) and small tanaid crustaceans.

Members of the Elpidiidae have particularly enlarged tube feet that have taken on a leg-like appearance, and are the only instance of legged locomotion amongst the holothurians, using water cavities within the skin (rather than within the leg itself) to inflate and deflate the appendages. 

These legs, in conjunction with their large, plump appearance (about 6 inches/15 cm long) have suggested the common name “sea pig”. There are other genera of Elpidiidae with a similar appearance that have also been referred to as “sea pigs”.
