Sea otters tend to eat their food in the water while floating on their backs, with the food on their stomach. River otters are on land frequently. Sea otters almost never leave the water. River otters tend to be all brown. Adult sea otters' heads lighten throughout their lifetime, becoming quite blond. In addition to the above, Sea Otters often gather in large numbers called "rafts" while river otters are more solitary and are usually only seen in groups of 4 or less (mom and pups).

What are Sea otter's are covered in?
Sea otters are covered in an extremely dense coat of fur, with 1,000,000 strands of hair per square inch (the densest of any animal on earth). Two different kinds of hair make up this coat: short underhair, which retains air and insulates the otter, and long guardhair, which prevent the ocean water from leaking into the underhair. It was because of this luxurious pelt that sea otters were so intensely hunted in the past--which was the primary contribution to today's decimated population of sea otters.
How many nipples does a black bear have?
How many pups an otter has depends on the species: * North-American river otters typically have 1-3 pups, and up to 6 at a time. * Eurasian river otters typically have 1-4 pups at a time. * Sea otters normally have only one pup at a time, although twins are not unheard of (however, one of the pups is always abandoned, because an otter mother can only care for one at a time). * Asian small-clawed otters usually have 1-2 pups, but can have up to 4 at a time. * Spotted-necked otters have around 3 pups at a time. * Giant otters normally have 2 pups, but are known to have between 1-5. * Smooth-coated otters, Marine otters, and African clawless otters each typically have 2-5 pups at a time. * Little is known about the hairy-nosed otter, the southern river otter, the neotropical otter, all of which are endangered species.A sea otter typically bears only one pup at a time. Sometimes a sea otter will have twins; however, in these cases, one of the pups will be abandoned, for a sea-otter mother can care for only one pup at a time.Sea Otters usually have one pup. In cases where two are produced the outcome is not good. Only about 2% survive.
What distinctive features of a sea otter?
Sea Otters can have some very strange physical characteristics such as they have no blubber, instead a very thick fur covers every inch of there bodies. Much like that of an underground animal sea otters consider smell more important than sight and high-sensitive whiskers and front paws are used more than sight in the hunting of prey. Social characteristics of sea otters are rather odd. Each sex of an otter will join hands together and float on there backs in a big formation stretching from 10-100 otters on average. This formation is called a rompt or a raft. When a rompt of otters enters another's territory another otter will attempt to scare away the pack but fighting amongst these two rompts rarely occurs. During mating season the male will mark the females its mated to by biting its muzzle often leaving scars. For more information on sea otters go to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_otter
