Clamato is showing us exactly what sea otters do best: using tools likes rocks and shell-on-shell strikes, to get to the good stuff inside. 🦪Even while engaging in normal, instinctive behaviours, Clamato remains a medically fragile patient and requires close monitoring and ongoing care.
One second can change everything. Ride safe, stay alert, and never take the road for granted. 🏍️💔
🎥 + 💭: @matthewunderwater “I had never seen anything remotely close to this. It is said that some marine mammals may actually get “high” from chewing on pufferfish 🐡 When threatened, a puffer fish inflates, and its body carries tetrodotoxin, a toxin that can change an animal’s behavior once it bites down. For humans, tetrodotoxin can be more lethal than cyanide. On our expedition to La Paz, Baja California Sur, the sea lions of Los Islotes showed us something none of us had seen before. For 30 minutes we watched, half amazed and half horrified, as they chased a black guineafowl pufferfish, hauled it to the surface like a balloon, let it slip back down to the rocks, then did it all over again.”
On August 27, 2026, at approximately 5:29 p.m., officers responded to a reported domestic violence incident in the 1500 block of Pamela Court. During the 911 call, a woman could be heard screaming and pleading with a man to stop hitting her. According to reports describing the released body-camera footage, officers encountered 35-year-old Enrique Lozano, who allegedly ignored repeated commands and attempted to grab an officer’s firearm. An officer responded by opening fire, striking Lozano. Officers immediately rendered medical aid before Lozano was transported to a hospital, where he later died. No officers were injured during the incident.
I expect an invite to the next ritual
