These images cover a wide range of behavior among these social animals -- everything from playful pups to nurturing mothers to raging males. Included is a worldwide survey of pinnipeds, with special sections devoted to harbor seals, sea lions, and the ever-intriguing elephant seals.

It's all here for the budding biologist or zoologist, or the just-plain-curious kid: otter methods of courtship and reproduction, eating habits, and the animal's complex relationship with humankind, including how these playful animals continue to be threatened by oil spills and the encroachment of human society. An "Otter Secrets" section presents "amazing but true" characteristics of the otter, while the "To Learn More" page points curious readers to related websites, books, organizations, videos, and DVDs.
