Sea otter pup wakes up before mom

When you observe and don't disturb, you can see fascinating natural sea otter behaviors! There are so many interesting behaviors packed in to this 6 minute video, it's hard to know where to begin! The Sea Otter Savvy team was monitoring a raft of females, many with pups, and a territorial male in the harbor at Morro Bay when one pup awoke and lost his bearings while his mom continued to sleep soundly (she's at the far right of the frame, very close to shore). Sea otter pup vocalizations are very loud, and are designed to attract mom's attention even in crashing surf or roaring winds. As you will see, the entire raft becomes agitated in response to the panicking pup, but the mom (who probably needs the rest) sleeps on. Females outside the raft vocalize in response to the pups cries, a male pops in and rebuffs the pups advances, and an old territorial male (very grizzled (white fur), at center, near shore) ignores the activity and quietly rebuffs the incoming younger, healthier male. Stick around for the happy ending! Disclaimer: viewers may hear one of the observers in this video make a comment about throwing a stone at an otter. Arguably in poor taste, the comment was nevertheless a nervous jest in reaction to the unresponsive state of the mother sea otter. Normally, a mother otter would react immediately to her pup's cry. Sea Otter Savvy clearly does not advocate throwing stones at sea otters or any wildlife, and we hope that the comment can be viewed within the context of our extensive outreach and advocacy for sea otters.
