This Extremely Shy Otter Gets Groomed. When They Zoom In It’s Priceless!

The battle for the cutest animal throne rages eternally. It is impossible to quantify the near infinite cuteness of the baby animal kingdom, although some common contenders such as kittens, puppies and baby pandas consistently battle for top spots. As cute as they are, they are up against some stiff competition. Hedgehogs, elephants, penguins, sloths, kangaroos and harp seals all exhibit formidable cuteness.

In this aaahhhh inspiring video, this baby sea otter presents a strong case for top baby animal cuteness contender. Those little whiskers and wide eyes make for a compelling argument. This is one baby animal that is quickly winning my vote!

Sea otters, the largest member of the weasel family, can reach almost 100 pounds. Their fur is the densest of all animals and keeps them warm in the cold ocean waters they inhabit. They are very intelligent, and their use of rocks to break mollusk shells places them in an exclusive group of tool wielding mammals.
