Sea Otter Web Cam

Live Web Cam: 7 a.m.–7 p.m. PST

Meet our otters!

You'll often see our otters on the move in this exhibit. Our aquarists put food in toys to stimulate the otters’ natural behavior of pounding and working to get food out of shells. They also teach the otters behaviors, like holding a target with their paws, or walking onto a scale or into a kennel. Training keeps our otters mentally and physically stimulated; it also makes working with the otters safer for us and less stressful for them.

California Taxpayers Support Sea Otters!

California Taxpayers Support Sea Otters!

In 2006, new California legislation inspired by a visit to the Monterey Bay Aquarium resulted in a voluntary check-off on California income tax forms to fund vital sea otter research.

Help Save Sea Otters Like Kit!

As the only rehabilitation center for California's sick, injured or stranded sea otters, we've provided expert care to more than 500 animals just like Kit, the stranded pup that recently went on exhibit with her companion, Mae. To continue this important work, we need your help. Our programs are funded by contributions from people like you who care about the oceans. Your fully tax-deductible gift will help us ensure that sea otters, and all ocean wildlife, thrive for future generations.
