Did you know that otters sleep and rest between 10-12 hours each day? Resting in large groups can help them stay warm and protected from predators, however it’s not necessarily a bad sign to see an otter on it’s own. Sea otters are solitary hunters, meaning they hunt in small groups or by themselves. If you see an otter on its own like this one, it may be taking a rest after searching for food. #estuary #morrobay #wildlife #seaotter | Morro Bay National Estuary Program
