I didn’t know it was world otter day yesterday Ori, cool! I like otters, we saw lots of sea otters when I was on holiday in Monterey in America. Thanks for sharing your facts with us! 🙂
Hello Ori! Great facts, why do some sea otters cover themselves in seaweed while they sleep? I’ve never heard of this before.
Hi Miss Brockie Donald and Miss Stapleton
Sea Otters cover themselves in seaweed to stop them drifting away! I am trying to raise awareness of these extraordinary animals..
Ahh, how clever of them!
Some great facts Ori and a super drawing of an otter.
Great facts Ori! I like the idea of a seaweed blanket to stop them drifting away. They sound like very smart animals!
Your facts about otters are great, Oriana and what a beautiful drawing – well done.
