- The Oregon Coast Aquarium is honored to announce a new addition to its sea otter raft: Earle the southern sea otter pup.
Earle was found in May 2021 stranded at Asilomar State Beach in Pacific Grove, California. He was cold and lethargic, and after his mother could not be located he was taken to Monterey Bay Aquarium for treatment. Earle was determined to be about 3 weeks old, weighing about 6.5lbs. Earle was declared non-releasable, and in July of 2021, he was flown to the Oregon Coast Aquarium, where he joined the other members of the sea otter raft. He is named after Sylvia Earle, an oceanographer, scuba diver, and research scientist dedicated to conservation.

Well, at least we got 1 minute of low-level music so we could hear any natural sounds from the animal in question. Why are these loud disco music loops common in most animal videos?
Oh my Earle! You are beautiful!!!! Meep!!!
Hello Earle! 🤗🤗🤗🤗
I live in Yachats just to the south
Cool! Is there some reason why he couldn't go to, say, the Monterey Bay Aquarium, which is closer?
Earle's residency at OCAq makes room for the next stranded pup that comes in to Monterey Bay Aquarium, potentially freeing personnel to care for other pups that may have the chance to be released to the wild!
So when will he be joining
So far, Earle remains mostly behind-the-scenes as he grows and meets the other members of the sea otter raft. Earle has spent short sessions in the main habitat, and will continue to do so as he becomes confident in the space and his interactions with the other sea otters. We can not yet say when he'll be in the main habitat full-time, but he is making great progress!
WHY IS EARLE BY HIMSELF???
HE NEEDS SOME FRIENDS IN THERE.
Earle is not quite yet ready to meet the other members of the sea otter raft; since he is just a pup, he still needs to grow before he can safely be introduced to the others. Our mammalogists predict that Earle will be big enough for introductions in 1-2 months!
To the people against zoos/aquariums
It's better to save these ones instead of just letting them die, then you can learn more about their species and how to better look after them and potentially help so this happens less in the future.
PLUS they are adorable! Whose to say that it's not part of God's plan that doing this can help even people as well?
