What's the largest member of the weasel family yet the smallest member of the marine mammals? It's the sea otter! This isn't the only surprising fact about them, however. In this class, we will discuss: - Where sea otters are found - How type of sea otters there are - What adaptations sea otters have - What threats sea otters face - What we can do to save sea otters Learners will be introduced to these zoology topics via an interactive lecture featuring Google Slides, Photos, Videos, and personal stories from my time working directly in the zoo and aquarium world.
