    After falling in love with Joey like so many of us have, it's wonderful to see the otters in their natural environment. Vancouver is doing a phenomenal job with Joey, yet just thinking that he'll never get to continue experiencing this is a little sad. Instead of sleeping on his mom's belly, Joey sleeps in a crib or on a mat on a concrete floor.

    Beautiful, beautiful mama otters taking care of their babies. They have a rough life in the seas. Storms, boats run over them, they get caught in fishermen nets, starve, get eaten by sharks, get ill, on and on. Have around 8 years life in the wild. My heart goes out to the sweet sea otters, wish they could be helped in the wild, away from all the dangers, but how? They're becoming endangered, because they ARE in danger. Thank you to all who help them. And thank you for this amazing video, beautifully shot.

    Wow. Newborn sea otter pups are huge compared to newborn river otters. Newborn river otters weight from 99 to 120 grams, when sea otter newborns can weight more than two kg. That's amazing difference. That's also probably why sea otter pups develop so much faster than their freshwater counterparts. River otters reach independence at 12 months, sea otters at 6 months old.

      baby otters have an incredibly dense coat, which is also why they float so well (their mums fluff it up so it keeps them buoyant) - between that and staying on their mums' bellies when they're not fetching food, they stay pretty warm

    Californian otter moms: Take care of my floating ball of fluff and raise it to survive an ocean filled with sea lions, killer whales and sharks that will eat them. Californians: That is so cute and wonderful, the power of a strong mother. Also Californians(also, the rest of urban America): I need an abortion, my baby isn't convenient for me now, my future is more important then the little life in me, but I still love "fur babies".
    People, please, don't empathize with animals that act like humans when those same people act less like humans then the wild animals do.
