TomTom, yeah, that was what I was thinking too in the beginning - that the otter is displaying typical caged-animal behavior of repeatedly going back and forth along the same track. However, near the end it is obvious the otter is actually reacting to the child's movements. Glad I watched the whole thing!

TomTom, the otter was DEFINITELY reacting to the boy. Towards the end of the video, the boy stops running & turns & the otter stops short & also turns. They do this more than once in quick succession.

It rather looks like the otter is simply swimming from left to right, not caring what the kid does? It's not like it's reacting to the kid?

Awww cute.

Though that is the San Diego Zoo, not Sea World (the description on the video is wrong).
