Pike the Sea Otter

Sea otters are fascinating creatures known for their playful behavior and unique adaptability. They float on their backs, using their chest as a dining table to crack open shellfish with rocks—a behavior unique to them. With the densest fur of any animal, sea otters stay warm in cold waters. They play a crucial ecological role in maintaining kelp forests by preying on sea urchins, which can otherwise destroy these ecosystems. Despite their endearing traits, sea otters face significant threats from oil spills, fishing nets, and habitat degradation, making conservation efforts essential for their survival.
