Did you know sea otters use tools to eat, just like us? Otters eat a variety of bottom-dwellers like clams, crabs, sea urchins and snails, which sometimes require help from a trusty rock. Marlin Perkins marveled at the way sea otters could use a simple tool, and so do our friends at the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach, California. Then and now, sea otters are pretty incredible!

Did you know sea otters use tools? 🦦 ⚒️ Sea otters eat mostly hard-shelled invertebrates like sea urchins, clams, and mussels, and getting through their shelled prey can be tricky. To do so, they collect large rocks and hold them to their chest. They then smash their prey against the rock to get to the soft parts that they can eat! Learn more: https://bit.ly/46pvV2t | Oceana

Sea otters are known for their clever use of tools, and they often carry around rocks for several practical reasons. One of the main uses is for breaking open hard-shelled prey like clams, mussels, and sea urchins. They'll use the rock as a tool while floating on their backs, smashing the shells against it to access the soft meat inside.

Sea otters aren’t just cute—they’re also one of the few marine animals that use tools. Here in BC, you might see a sea otter repeatedly slamming a shell against some rocks until the shell cracks open. Some will even float with a rock balanced on their belly and use it as a personal dining table, striking the shell against it with quick, sharp blows. The skill is learned, not instinctive—young otters watch and copy the adults around them. Many otters even have a “favourite rock” they use again an
