I'm about 90% certain this is a baby sea otter. It's too fluffy and beavers have longer little fingers.

whoops, my error. i wanted to write otter but by accident wrote beaver. sorry about that.

guess i was brain-afk while commenting (english isn't my mother tongue).

No worries! Do you happen to know the original source? Orphan creatures make me sad, but I think it's valuable to credit the rehabilitation centres who are usually volunteers and relying on donations.

p.s: sorry it took a while to reply. for some reason Liftoff (app) didn't let me comment at all.. so i had to go on my computer, search out the link again etc.

Excellent, thanks!

For extra context for others:

This is a video of Joey the Sea Otter who was rescued in 2020 by Vancouver’s Marine Mammal Rescue Centre operated by non-profit conservation organization Ocean Wise.

Joey now lives at Vancouver Aquarium.
