Orphaned Newborn Otter Rescued from Deadly Orca Attack: Heartbreaking Cry for Mother
A newborn sea otter was rescued by wildlife responders in Alaska after surviving an orca attack witnessed by Natalie Hunter and her group. The otter pup's mother did not survive the attack, but the cries of the pup indicated it was still alive. The responders waited for the orcas to leave and then called for assistance. The pup was carefully brought back to shore and is now receiving round-the-clock care at the Alaska SeaLife Center. It is the second orphaned otter pup admitted in less than a week.
