Mobile Update: Sea Cucumber Mouth

     For those of you who aren't constantly checking zooborns, you may not know that the Seattle Aquarium's otter collection just became bigger.  Their sea otters just had a tiny, fluffy little baby.  There was a lot of worry, initially, about whether or not they could keep it.  Apparently male sea otters are very territorial, so it would have had to go if it was a male.  Luckily it turned out to be a little girl, so she's staying there.  I had to go see for myself.  I had a hard time getting good photos of the baby as that area was super crowded with annoying people, but I was able to get some other good photos including this one of a sea cucumber's mouth.

     For the record, before I was a vegetarian I actually did eat one of these.  It was quite good.
