Creator's Key Takeaways

I'll try to find some sea otters especially in kelp EDS where they'll stay on the surface of the longer for us

the island there is Cruise off Island and everything you see everything is volcanic

gray whales feed on things that they find on the bottom they find whatever they find in the kelp

the Otters actually helped cultivate these cow beds so dense that you can't actually split the hairs to find your skin

βœ“Use toggles inside hoods and close zippers and velcro to protect from wind
βœ“Take pictures as you come up to wildlife before it dies down or flies off
βœ“Look for sea otters in kelp beds where they stay on the surface
