Sea Otter Playing with a Kayaker
Occurred on October 5, 2019 / Cordova, Alaska, USA
Info from Licensor: "I was paddling just outside the harbor of Cordova, Alaska when a sea otter swam up to me. I paused kayaking to watch and admire it. The sea otter started by swimming under the kayak, then playing with the bow, and finally jumping on top of the kayak. When it jumped on top of my kayak I was holding onto a rock to prevent the boat from possibly flipping. After several minutes of this it was spooked by my paddle slapping the water, and swam away."
