About This Camera

Located in Stanley Park, the Vancouver Aquarium runs a long-standing marine-mammal rescue program; many of the otters in this cam are rehabilitated rescues from the BC coast. The 24/7 stream captures grooming, feeding, and the otters' surprising agility.

Sea Otter

Enhydra lutris

A keystone marine mammal of the North Pacific, sea otters keep kelp forests healthy by preying on sea urchins. Hunted to near-extinction in the 18th and 19th centuries for the densest fur of any mammal, sea otters survive today in a handful of recovering populations.
