***About Sea Otters:

*** Sea otters are fascinating creatures known for their intelligence, playful nature, and incredible ability to use tools, such as rocks, to open shellfish. Their thick fur, the densest of any mammal, provides insulation against cold water, paramount for their survival in the frigid waters of the Pacific Ocean. As a keystone species, they play a vital role in maintaining the balance of nearshore ecosystems, such as kelp forests. Observing their behaviors offers insights into the complex interdependencies in marine habitats and underscores the importance of conservation efforts to sustain these charismatic animals.
