With Those Table Manners, Maybe Put Her Back in Quarantine

I only joke, U’na couldn’t be more adorable, see-food or no! Alaska SeaLife Center writes:

Un’a the sea otter pup admitted in May this summer, is officially out of quarantine (has been for a while, actually). What does that mean?

When animals arrive through our wildlife response program, they can carry parasites or diseases from the Gulf of Alaska that could spread to our resident animals. To protect everyone in our care, staff who work with response patients must shower and change before entering the main building.

Being cleared from quarantine is a big milestone for Un’a. Her tests are all clear, her weight is solid, and our veterinary team is confident she can safely join the resident side of the facility. She will still have regular veterinary check-ups and is closely monitored for any changes, but now she can focus on being an otter rather than the lifesaving rehabilitation she first needed.
