While taking his usual walk behind his residence, a man was startled by the frantic screams echoing around. Confused by the unusual commotion, he continued towards a nearby beach to investigate further.
Approaching the shore, the man’s heart sinks when he sees a weak creature struggling. There, in the midst of a pile of tears, sat a baby otter, separated from its family and longing for the comfort of its mother. Touched by the otter’s plight, an employee from a nearby aquarium felt compelled to intervene and reunite the distressed otter with its relatives.
The man’s journey takes an unexpected turn when he becomes involved in a thrilling rescue mission, embodying the compassionate spirit necessary to mend the bonds of the animal kingdom.

He was also skilled at handling the baby otter, so he gently picked it up and walked along the beach, aiming to be reunited with its mother. He hoped the baby otter’s cry would attract his mother’s attention. Unfortunately, no other otters were seen, probably due to the large waves caused by the weather, which likely led to the permanent separation of the baby otter from its mother.
With no alternative, the man decided to take the baby otter to the aquarium to be cared for.
