This week, we're revisiting one of our most popular episodes featuring one of the most charismatic marine mammals on the planet—the sea otter.
These adorable creatures are more than just a cute face. Sea otters play a critical ecological role as a keystone species, particularly in maintaining the health of kelp forest ecosystems. In this re-release, we dive into the fascinating life of the sea otter, including:
- Their incredible adaptations for life in the water
- How they use tools to open shellfish
- Their vital role in controlling sea urchin populations
- The challenges they’ve faced from hunting and habitat loss
- Ongoing conservation efforts that are helping populations recover
Originally released in 2021, this episode is as relevant as ever with the growing need to protect our oceans and their unique inhabitants. Whether you're a long-time listener or new to All Creatures Podcast, this is a story of resilience, interconnection, and the magic of marine life.
Tune in and fall in love with sea otters all over again!
