 Sea Otters

Sea otters are mammals that

drink their mother's milk. Sea

otters can dive 100 metres

deep. They live in the kelp

forests where they find their

food. They use a tool and it is

called a rock to break off the

kelp eaters. Their food is crabs,

clams and sea urchins.

Sea otters sleep on top of the

water kelp. Before they go to

sleep, they pull up a piece of

seaweed so they don't float

away.

Baby sea otters are called

pups. Baby sea otters can float

on top of the water when they

are one day old. Mother sea

otters leave their pups on top

of the water when they go

diving. They bring their food up

to the top of the water. They

carry some of their food to the

top of the water under their

armpits.

Sea otters were endangered

because people were hunting

them for their skins. Kelp was

dying. Then there was a law

made to hunt no!!more otters,

so the kelp grew back again.
