Welcome Taz! This Sea Otter Awareness Week meet our newest arrival, rescued sea otter pup Tazlina. Taz was rescued earlier this year in Alaska and will be joining the Vancouver Aquarium family. She will be living alongside the Vancouver Aquarium’s six resident rescued sea otters – Tanu, Katmai, Mak, Kunik, Rialto, and Hardy. From September 21 – 29, celebrate these amazing creatures with special otter themed shows and programs including: • Daily sea otter feeds and enrichment sessions at the sea otter habitat throughout the day. • Sea otter family programs— fun for the young and the young-at-heart — at 10:45 a.m. daily. • Learn about the role sea otters play in coastal ecosystems at the Life in the Kelp Forest program at 12:30 p.m. daily at the Strait of Georgia exhibit. • Meet Vancouver Aquarium mascot Ollie the Sea Otter every morning during Sea Otter Awareness Week. • Get up close with the rescued sea otters during a sea otter encounter (Animal encounters are limited and must be booked in advance) • During your visit, why not visit the giftshop and ‘aquadopt’ one of the sea otters by purchasing an Aquadopt Kit? All proceeds go to looking after our sea otters and our conservation mission. Don’t forget, the Vancouver Aquarium’s opening hours are now 10am – 5pm daily!
