Cute Sea Otters Shuck And Eat Oysters

Aw shucks! It's oyster time for the sea otters.
Southern sea otters eat a large variety of foods, including sea urchins, abalone, crabs, clams and squid. Because their metabolism is 2-3 times the rate of other mammals their size, they need to eat about 25% of their body weight every day. Bottoms up!

[@imogen2092]

Wow! They open their oysters so quickly.

[@julianrakowskijevdh4373]

Did you know that otters in the wild keep a rock in armpit fat pocket to open clams

[@MajorCaliber]

@@julianrakowskijevdh4373 Yep, then they swim along on their back, hammering away with their little rock... and they never seem to run into anything! 🤔😎#DontMessWithFurryWetCarnivores
