Chow for now!

It’s hard to believe, but Sea Otter Awareness Week is over… ‘til next year, that is! Thanks for helping us celebrate all things otter! 🎊

🔑🪨 Why do otters get their very own #SeaOtterAwarenessWeek in September? Because they’re the real MVPs (Most Voracious Predators) of the kelp forest! They’re keystone species, meaning they maintain the balance of the ecosystem through their eating habits!

🦀 Sea otters munch urchins, crabs and other invertebrates. Without otters, these grazers overpopulate, mowing through the kelp like an all-you-can-eat salad bar and leaving behind barren stretches of seafloor.

🌿 Without otters, we wouldn’t have the lush kelp forests, seagrass beds, and healthy ecosystems that we love!

Having FOMO (fear of missing otters)? Just because Sea Otter Awareness Week is over, doesn’t mean the celebration has to end! These endangered marine mammals work hard for our coastal health and we think they deserve an ongoing round of a-paws, don’t you?

🦦 Learn more about these amazing animals and support our conservation efforts.

It’s Sea Otter Awareness Week! 🦦 Did you know sea otters are ocean influencers with a huge impact on marine ecosystems? As a keystone species, they help keep everything in balance. 🧘

When sea otters thrive, they keep sea urchins in check, which means more giant kelp, more habitat, and more fish and shellfish calling the kelp forest home.

In short: more otters = healthier oceans! 🌊✨

Here are all the new otter comics all together! This is a thank you post—I’m so grateful to everyone who engaged with these comics or bought a print. These three new comics were made as part of a collaboration with The Marine Mammal Center for their sea otter themed month of September, and thanks to everyone who bought a print, we raised 10,000 for them!

The Marine Mammal Center is the largest marine mammal hospital in the world and advances ocean health through marine mammal rescue and rehabilitation, research, and education. Above you can see some of their patients, Langly and Sprout! If you want to continue to support their work (and fill your feed with cute otter pics) give them a follow!

A Wisconsin zoo announced it has called off the search for an otter on the loose since March, explaining the animal "has made the decision to be a wild otter."
