Oregon Zoo Steller Cove Exhibit

Sea Otter Exhibit

Sea otters are one of the most charming animals you'll find, but are also a predator in the their ecosystem -- with a taste, like many humans, for crab, clams, abalone and other delicacies. Hunted to near extinction off the Pacific Northwest coast, there are now stable populations off the coast of Washington after a reintroduction effort. Our exhibit will tell you how the lack of these animals impacted kelp forests where they used to live.
