Canadians can see the progress of rescued sea otter pup Tofino as she settles into her permanent home.

The aquarium says the three-month-old otter was found abandoned near her namesake town back in June and was brought to the facility last week after she and another pup named Luna spent time at the aquarium's Marine Mammal Rescue Centre.

Luna remains under round-the-clock care.
