The sea otter is a highly intelligent marine animal. They live across coastal areas of the North Pacific Ocean. This range stretches from northern Japan and Russia across to Alaska, Canada, Washington, and California.
These animals are very playful and inquisitive. They are famous for swimming on their backs and use stones as tools to break open hard abalone shells. Humans hunted them for their thick fur and they became endangered.
Sea otters do not have blubber to stay warm. Instead, they rely entirely on their exceptionally thick fur. The fur is the densest fur of any animal. It has up to 1,000,000 strands of hair per square inch. The coat consists of long, waterproof guard hairs and a short undercoat.
