Description
Charismatic, fun-loving otter antics make us laugh. These boisterous aquatic acrobats are frequently described as “ferrets on crack” because of their inexhaustible antics. But they also have a nurturing side. They float around grooming themselves, cracking crabs on their chests and nibbling on urchins.

“I was in the Virgin Islands once. I met a girl. We ate lobster, drank piña coladas. At sunset, we made love like sea otters. That was a pretty good day. Why couldn’t I get that day over and over and over?” ~Bill Murray
Fun Facts:
-
- Unlike other marine mammals, otters don’t have a thick layer of blubber. To stay warm in chilly ocean waters, they wear the world’s densest fur—at its thickest, this two-layer fur is made up of more than a million hairs per square inch. (You’ve probably got 100,000 hairs or less on your whole head!) In order to keep their luxurious coats waterproof, they spend many hours a day cleaning and grooming. Such good grooming coats their fur with natural oils from their skin and fluffs it with insulating air bubbles.
- A British study discovered that average eight-year-olds were better able to identify characters from the Japanese card trading game Pokemon than native species in the community where they lived: Pikachu, Metapod, and Wigglytuff were more familiar to them than otters, beetle, and oak tree.
