Raise your hand if you want the expansion of offshore drilling to stop! ✋🦦 

Off the West Coast of North America where sea otters play, eat, rest, and raise their young, there are active oil rigs — posing looming threats to the future of these animals. 

Spills both big and small put sea otters at major risk – they rely on their fur for buoyancy and warmth – and oil can destroy their fur, causing hypothermia, and even death. 

Between 2010-2019 alone, the U.S. experienced an average of nearly two spills per day. 

Oceana is taking action to stop the expansion of offshore drilling. 

And this #SeaOtterAwarenessWeek, you can help make a difference at the #linkinbio.
