Description
The sea otter (Enhydra lutris) is a marine mammal native to the coasts of the northern and eastern North Pacific Ocean. Adult sea otters typically weigh between 31 and 99 lbs, making them the heaviest members of the weasel family, but among the smallest marine mammals. Unlike most marine mammals, the sea otter's primary form of insulation is an exceptionally thick coat of fur, the densest in the animal kingdom. Although it can walk on land, the sea otter is capable of living exclusively in the ocean.

Shoal, this little one appears to be holding lunch on his “table rock“ ...my husband and I stood watching their antics for over an hour ...they bring JOY to the very fabric of their grooming, incessant eating and lazily floating and napping existence!!...what a beautiful photo series you have of these furry delights!

Thank you Laurel. At first glance I thought the same thing but as our time went on, we discovered she was snuggled up next to her aging pup.
