Jan 2007: Bold Steps Safeguard Sea Otters

1. Past Actions

Increased protection for sea otters and a new source of funding for research! A new California sea otter law was inspired by a legislator's family trip to the Aquarium, and supported at critical points in the process by the Aquarium's Ocean Action Team.

The law expands sea otter research, increases the fine for killing or harming sea otters, and requires a warning label on kitty litter alerting consumers to the danger of flushing cat feces down the toilet. The law also gave Californians an opportunity to contribute to a sea otter research fund through their state income tax filing.
