In a story both heartbreaking and heartwarming, a baby Sea Otter was rescued by the Monterey Bay Aquarium after losing her mother. The young otter was found crying and desperately trying to climb on adult females in Morro Bay, seeking her missing mother.

With things looking increasingly desperate, staff decided to rescue the pup and bring her back to the Aquarium.
