Rescuers use baby otter’s cries to reunite lost pup with its mother
Stranded sea otter pup is reunited with mum
A stranded sea otter pup was successfully reunited with its mother in San Francisco.
The Marine Mammal Center rescued the pup after it was discovered near the Embarcadero roadway.
Rescuers played a one-minute recording of the pup's cries over a Bluetooth speaker to attract its mother in Morro Bay.
Following a two-hour search, the mother otter appeared and swam towards the rescue boat.
The team placed the baby in the water, and the mother immediately grabbed it, leading to an emotional reunion described as a 'top five day at work' by a rescuer.
