Tune in daily during Sea Otter Awareness Week to see our exhibit otters playing, grooming, snoozing, and eating. You can even catch live feeding and training sessions, where our Animal Care staff trains our otters to be active participants in their healthcare, or enrichment sessions, where we provide puzzles and challenges that enrich the lives of our feisty and inquisitive otters.
