Brave Otter Hops Onto Boat to Escape Killer Whales
This video is just the right amount of heartwarming and sad. Some men who were out boating in Alaska came across a pod of killer whales. Then things got dramatic when a mother sea otter and her pup made the scene and were hunted by the whales.
The baby, sadly, did not make it, and the mother otter swam over to the boat and hopped onboard to save herself. Warning: you might lose it when she starts crying, so have some Kleenex on hand.
