This is Otto, the first sea otter to be seen in Clayoquot Sound, west coast Vancouver Island Canada since 1923! He was photographed in 1996 by master photographer, Leigh Hilbert.
For those of you who enjoyed last week's video, this one is even better! This adorable little otter is not only juggling a rock but he's throwing it, trying to catch it on his back and bouncing the rock off a wall. Too cute!
I love how otters hold hands, it's just too cute! As adorable as hand-holding is, it also serves the function of keeping them together when they sleep so they don't float away from each other. The otter in the top of this picture is actually the last surviving captive otter from the 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill where it was just a pup at the time.

About This Site
I've always thought that otters were the cutest animal on the earth so I thought I'd dedicate a whole web site to them. This site is also to bring awareness of sea otters being on the endangered species list. If you have any otter pictures or video to submit, read the FAQ.
