... Sea otters don't breathe under water. The only animals that can are ones that have gills. Sea otters can hold their breath for long periods of time but must come up eventually (sort of like dolphins, whales, penguins etc.)

They don't breathe underwater, they are mammals, that means they are like us, they breathe air. They might seem like they can breathe underwater, but the truth is, they have to come up once in a while to get some more oxygen.

They don't, they have to poke their noses out of the water to catch a breath.

They don't breath under water, they have lungs! They are just able to hold their breath for an extended amount of time.

Sea otters use their rear flippers to move and use their tail to navigate their movement.

They don't swim fast and they usually swim on their back on the water's surface.

River Otters breath the same as Humans... But they can hold their breathes longer because they have a larger lung capacity.
