Chapter 2: Otters in NuchatlitzNuchatlitz is located in a remote corner of Vancouver Island, between Nootka and Kayukut. For humans, this area is too dangerous and almost totally useless. Too many hidden rocks to navigate, and too little land to build anything useful. But for sea otters, these rough waters are a true paradise! Time: 00:03:07 |
