These sweet otters are rafting as they sleep, a protective measure they employ when there is no kelp. In 2002, Nyac and Milo were filmed at the Vancouver Aquarium and this is one of the many versions of the video floating around YouTube.
In 2008, Nyac passed away at the age of 20. She was the last surviving sea otters of the Exxon Valdez oil spill.

It’s a “Bearbrick Garden”… massive bears in candy colours! Why don’t I have one (or all) of these?!
Next month, Japanese toy company Medicom celebrates its 15th anniversary with a big exhibition at Parco Shibuya. To get people hyped on the upcoming show, Parco and Medicom have collaborated on the creation of what they call a “Bearbrick Garden” near the entrance to Parco Shibuya. What exactly is a Bearbrick Garden? It’s a space along Shibuya Koen Dori inhabited by huge Japanese toys in candy colors! Bearbricks are made in sizes ranging from tiny, which they call 50%, up to human child-sized, which they call 1000%. So how big are the Bearbrick Garden Bearbricks? 3000%!
