Return of the Sea Otter: How Conservation Brought a Keystone Species Back

Ocean Week Victoria


June 5th 2025 7:00 PM - 8:30 PM
Victoria, British Columbia

Return of the Sea Otter: How Conservation Brought a Keystone Species Back is a celebration of one of the Pacific Coast’s most remarkable wildlife recovery stories.

Once driven to the brink of extinction for their fur, sea otters are now returning to their coastal habitats—and with them, a wave of ecological renewal. As a keystone species, sea otters play a vital role in maintaining the health of kelp forests, controlling sea urchin populations, and boosting marine biodiversity. This online webinar event explores how decades of conservation science and protection efforts have supported their comeback. Join Pacific Wild’s Marine Specialist to learn how their return is not just a conservation success, but a critical step in rebuilding resilient ocean ecosystems.
