- Otters are born not knowing how to swim, so they have to be carried around for the first 6 months.
- Baby otters eat up to a quarter of their body weight a day.
- Otters swaddle their babies in seaweed blankets to keep them warm.
- Otters hold hands while napping to avoid drifting apart.
- A group of otters holding hands is called a “raft.”
- Otters sleep for 11 hours a day.
- Otters can keep a favorite rock for their entire lives, storing it in the pocket of skin under their arms.
- Otters are some of the very few mammals other than humans who use tools.
- Otters are amazing jugglers.
- Otters have the thickest fur of any other mammal.
