 The sea otter’s scien-
tific name is Enhydra lutris
kenyoni. The sea otter is
the biggest member of the
weasel family. A sea otter
alone can live to be up to
25 years of age! But the
average life span is 10 to
12 years.
The sea otter may be
the smallest marine mam-
mal, but the average adult
male can get up to 5 feet
length and width. It also
can weigh up to 70 Ibs.
The adult female can get
up to 4 feet in length and
width, plus 60 Ibs.
The sea otter’s fur color
is sometimes brown or
black. Maybe white. Their
guard hairs can be silver,
light brown, or black.
Sea otters are endan-
gered because people have
been dumping waste into
their natural habitat. The
sea otters have to leave
their homes because of all
pollution in the water,
they didn’t want their ba-
bies to die from it.
The oil companies
might be the problem for
global warming. Any how
back to sea otters. They
can be found on the coast
of the Pacific Ocean and
on the coast of Asia and
North America. Sea otters
have webbed feet, water
repellent fur to keep them
dry, and nostrils and ears
to close in the water.
Sea otters are the only
otters to give birth in the
water. Their babies fur
starts out all rough and
uneven.
