Marine Otters are not extinct. They are endangered,though, and extremely rare to see. They were hunted extensively for their fur and very little is known about them. Poaching is a problem, but no one know the magnitude. We are unsure about what they eat, but believed to be crabs, shrimps, mollusks, and fish. Not known about mating but breeding occurs in Dec. or Jan. litters are 2 - 5 pups born after gestation period of 60 to 70 days. They remain with their mother for about 10 months of care.
