One animal advocacy group estimates that in the early 1900's the worldwide population was around 1,000 - 2,000 and as of 2009 a worldwide population around 68,900 - 81,600. A Sea Otter population estimate for Southwest Alaska according to a 2008 report from the US Fish and Wildlife Service is 38,703. Sea Otter population estimate for Southcentral Alaska according to a 2008 report from the US Fish and Wildlife Service is 13,955. Sea Otter population estimate for Southeast Alaska according to a 2008 report from the US Fish and Wildlife Service is 9,136. Which would make the Sea Otter population for Alaska 61,834 according to the 2008 report. A recent report by the US Fish and Wildlife Service estimates that the stock for Southeast Alaska will grow to about 28,000 by 2015 accounting for Sea Otters taken in subsistence hunting by Alaska Natives.
