Sea otter’s grooming keeps it warm
#OneMoment Look at this sea otter, adorably rubbing its face! With up to 160,000 hairs per square centimeter, its fur is designed to trap insulating air. Grooming maintains the fluffiness and water resistance of its fur, which is crucial for its survival in chilly water. If their fur becomes matted or dirty, the seawater can penetrate directly to the skin, causing body heat to dissipate and potentially leading to freezing to death. #animals #cute #zoology
