Okeanis researchers, working in partnership with the Elkhorn Slough Foundation and the Elkhorn Slough National Estuarine Research Reserve, witnessed the birth of a healthy otter pup on April 27, 2011. It is a very rare sight to see a wild otter born. This video was taken just minutes after the birth in the Elkhorn Slough. Researchers kept their distance to help the new mother feel safe.
