Video captures wild sea otter giving birth

  • 8 years ago
MONTEREY, CALIFORNIA — A video showing a wild sea otter giving birth has gone viral online.

"Our sea otter researchers have been watching wild otters for years and have never seen a birth close up like this. We're amazed and awed to have had a chance to witness this Monterey Bay conservation success story first hand in our own backyard," Monterey Bay Aquarium wrote on a Facebook post.

The sea otter was seen grooming her pup right after it was born. The aquarium said it helps the baby sea otter to stay warm and buoyant.

The video has already attracted more than 130,000 views and shared more than 2,700 times.
