The Otter Opal pt. 2

Tonight, we’ll read the second half to “The Otter Opal”, a Snoozecast original. The first half aired in the last episode, where we met two sea otters as they floated above the kelp forest. Their days are spent sleeping, eating, napping, playing and racing. Tumma excels at all activities, except for the swim races. We also learn that sea otters often have a favorite stone that they keep in a pocket of their fur, and Tumma finds himself an extraordinary one. In many Indigenous coastal traditions, sea otters have been viewed as symbols of curiosity, transformation, and cleverness. Their habit of using tools—especially stones—makes them one of the few non-human animals known to do so. — read by 'V' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!
