 Without any other action, an aquatic creature can last a significant amount of time under the water without taking a breath.  The rate at which they exhaust their air supply is very small while stationary, lasting an hour before they begin to die due to lack of oxygen.  Actively [[Sprinting|sprinting]] consumes oxygen, but only a small amount.  A player can sprint for a long time without worrying about air, only surfacing occasionally.  Using [[Primary Attack|your bite attack]] consumes moderate oxygen.  Use of any ability that consumes significant [[Ability|ability power]] such as [[Grabbing|grabbing]] will consume lots of oxygen.  Combat consumes significant oxygen, likely causing creatures to need a breath in the midst.  The [[Elasmosaurus]] does not consume additional oxygen to use its bite, but the [[Mosasaurus]] does.

 [[Fish]] grant a slight amount of air, mostly to offset the air used during the [[Elasmosaurus]]' [[Primary Attack|bite]] attack used to catch the fish such that it remains a neutral activity.
