Her latest role is a small but powerful one, and does plenty to erase any memories of her cosmo-swilling, man-eating alter-ego. The Yes List: A Sex and the City Star Strips Down The Daily Beast April 7, 2011. Yes, the capricious, man-eating screen siren has, quite literally, gotten thee to a nunnery.
1 Giant otters weigh about 200 grams (7 oz.) at birth. 2  Freshwater otter pups are born blind, toothless, and practically immobile. They remain in their birthing dens, and spend their first few weeks nursing and sleeping.  Sea otter pups measure 56 to 61 cm (22-24 in.) in length and weigh 2 to 2.3 kg (4.5-5 lb.). They are somewhat precocial; born with eyes open, first teeth already emerging, and a full coat of dense fur that enables them to float. They are, however, completely dependent on their mothers for care and protection.
Many adult marine mammals gain and lose weight throughout the year depending on the water temperature, food availability and behavioral changes associated with breeding seasons. Here at the Seattle Aquarium we weigh our marine mammals at least twice a month in order to monitor their health. Unlike other marine mammals, sea otters do not have an insulating layer of blubber and instead rely on their dense fur and high metabolism to keep warm. Sea otter fur is the densest of any animal on earth with an average of 500,000 hairs per square inch. They live in water that ranges in temperature from 35-60Â°F, so in order to keep their body temperature at approximately 100Â°F, a sea otter needs to east approximately 25% of its body weight each day!
