Whale hello there! We hope you liked this video. Subscribe to our channel for more from the Monterey Bay and our mission to inspire conservation of the ocean:

“

Sea otters possess the densest fur of any mammal, with up to a million hairs per square inch, which is crucial for insulation in cold waters since they lack a blubber layer. This incredible adaptation, combined with their incredibly fast metabolism, requires them to consume up to 25-30% of their body weight in food every single day just to stay warm!
