There’s a lot going on in our sea otter exhibit!

We feed our otters four times a day, often putting the food in toys to stimulate the otters’ natural behavior of pounding and working to get food out of shells. Our aquarists also teach the otters behaviors, like holding a target with their paws, or walking onto a scale or into a kennel. Training keeps our otters mentally and physically stimulated; it also makes working with the otters safer for us and less stressful for them.

You can watch our Sea Otter Feeding and Training Sessions online three times a day. Preview the showVideo
