SHEDD AQUARIUM — She may not have thumbs, but Shedd Aquarium's sea otter pup can handle a basketball.
At least a small one. In a pool.
The pup, Luna, showed off her handles Thursday morning at Chicago's aquarium as the 2015 NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament tipped off.
In the video shot by Shedd (and shown here), Luna also plays with a floating crustacean toy and does aquatic barrel rolls for food.
Being a four-legged aquatic creature that will likely only grow to four feet in length, it's doubtful Luna's skills could translate to the hardwood. But it's apparent such limitations aren't inhibiting the furry hooper's love for the game.
