Beavers and Sea Otters

Dive into the fascinating world of aquatic marvels in this webinar featuring Oregon-based panelists Michelle St. Martin of U.S. Fish and Wildlife, Chanel Hason of the Elakha Alliance, and Peter Hatch of the Confederated Siletz Indians.
Sleek waterproof fur and webbed feet are just a few of the remarkable similarities between these two mammals who share a gift for shaping their environments, and in this webinar you will learn more about sea otters and their significance as a keystone species. Much like beavers, sea otters in Oregon became locally extinct in the late 19th century due to fur trading and conflicts with fishers. Now, efforts are underway to restore populations along the coast thereby creating a more resilient marine ecosystem.
