Snow day + crab legs = Cali’s great day! (pronounced “Cha-Lee”)

Cali is one of four rehabilitated otter pups currently receiving care at the ASLC. All four were found orphaned earlier this summer, and all required around-the-clock care from our team.

Because sea otter pups rely heavily on their mothers to learn how to forage, groom, and survive in the wild, orphaned pups admitted at under six months are not candidates for release. Cali, Un'a, Nipi, and Imaq are slowly acclimating to human care and their future as ambassadors for their species, while continuing to receive any veterinary care they need.
