When you wake up, assess the situation… and decide it can wait. 😴

The best gift you can give a resting sea otter is space. Keep your distance so the nap can continue to be this good.

The storm has passed and the sun is back. ☀️
After a busy weekend along the coast, this sea otter is glowing in the sunlight and doing what sea otters do best—resting.
A good Monday reminder to slow down and #respectthenap. 🦦

Another Monday, and the world feels heavy. In times like these, it’s more important than ever to care for yourself. Take a cue from the 🦦—rest isn't retreat, it's resilience.
Be gentle with yourself. Recharge. Reset. And remember to #RespectTheNap -yours and others’

Sea otters burn calories faster than you or me to keep warm in cold waters! Because of this, energy management is especially important and otters will much of their free time napping to save energy! To stop from floating far while they snooze, otters wrap up in kelp to stay anchored #respectthenap

It’s #StewardshipSaturday and we are recognizing some tour boats we’ve spotted doing a GREAT job giving resting sea otters space! Remember, bigger boats need to give MORE SPACE. Shout out to Morro Bay’s Chablis Cruises and the Lost Isle—we see you being sea otter savvy!

Motions
by Alex Mendez

cool waters of the slough
pushing against me
pushing against the currents
from kayaks and boaters
a gentle rock
as long as they let me float on
and stay napping with my young

Poem was by one of our CSUMB Service Learning students. #RespectTheNap #mindfulmonday

This is your sign to stop scrolling, stay a moment, & enjoy this sea otter mom & dreaming pup. #mondaymood

This is the 'nursery zone' at Morro Bay. When you are calm and quiet, you can observe serene moments of wild sea otters like this one. #respectthenap

Slow Saturdays are for napping. Sea otters spend half their day resting to conserve energy and convert food to body heat to stay warm in cold water. Floating. Snoozing. Thriving. Help sea otters survive andthrive by giving them space and quiet. #RespecttheNap #slowsaturday

Sea Otter Love can be complicated....but not for a mom and pup ❤️

It's been a bit rough lately, so take some time for yourself - be kind and open to a hug.

But don't hug wildlife! Remember, love them from afar! #respectthenap #respectwildlife

👀 Do you see it now?

People often get closer than they realize.
What looks “calm” to us can actually be a sea otter on alert.

Sea otters don’t actually need angry cartoon eyes to tell us how they feel; we just need to pay better attention.

Observe. Don’t disturb.
