“It truly takes a village to rehabilitate a young sea otter. Our animal care team is teaching the pup how to be an otter,” said Tim Binder, VP of Animal Collections at Shedd, in a statement.
And thank goodness! This little girl weighed around 2 pounds, which is "tiny for a newborn sea otter." Luckily, rescuers were able to start giving her the calories and care she needed.
At first the water was a little weird to get used to...
...but she shook it off like a champ!
And like any good otter pup, she loves her bottle time. Who wouldn't enjoy being pampered?
