The result was an oil slick which threatened all of the area wildlife, especially the sea otters. This is the story of the animal rescue experts who went to Alaska to lend a hand. Illustrated with the author's own photographs, Sea Otter Rescue is a fascinating first-hand account of the heroic measures taken to save the lives of hundreds of sea otters. "Inspirational and sobering." --Kirkus Reviews "Smith provides a fascinating look at the dedicated individuals improvising tools and techniques in a desperate attempt to help the otters." --Kirkus Reviews | ||
