It’s Sea Otter Awareness Week!

Southern sea otter pup Langly became an orphan when she was too young to survive on her own. Staff and volunteers cared for her at our hospital, preparing meals six times a day until she was old enough to be released back to her ocean home.

Virtually adopt Langly to help sea otter pups like her!

Book a Tour to Meet Our Patients

This patient is a northern fur seal, a species that we typically see stranding toward the end of the year. As a species that lives in the open ocean, these fur seals rarely come to shore except for when they are sick or injured.

Northern fur seals are especially sensitive to changes in their environment, as seen in the record numbers of sick or starving fur seals rescued and cared for at our hospital during years when we have seen El Niño conditions.
