Pelicans Adapt to River Otter Threat After 73 Deaths

Pelicans are learning to evade river otters after 73 brown pelicans were found dead in California's Abbotts Lagoon. This alarming predation is linked to the growing otter population in Northern California, which typically preys on fish but has turned to larger birds for energy. Researchers are observing this adaptation as a critical survival strategy for the pelicans in the face of increased otter hunting.
