This behavior is uncommon and often happens in areas where they feel safe from disturbance.If you're lucky enough to spot a sea otter resting on land, the best thing you can do is give it plenty of space. Disturbing a resting otter can cause it to return to the water before it's ready, using valuable energy it needs for staying healthy.By observing from a distance, we can help ensure these incredible marine mammals stay wild and thrive.
