In a world where we see toddlers being bullied by their daycare workers for simply wearing a dress, cute animals to provide light-hearted relief are always welcome.
A video depicting Mishka, an adorable otter with asthma, learning how to use an inhaler was released. This video depicts some of the cutest seconds of your life, while also insuring the watcher realizes that rates of asthma are significantly higher than they have been in the past. More and more people are being forced to accept the reality that people are making a lasting, negative impact on our environment.
The idea of this video is significant for the fact that it will bring awareness to the impact people have on the environment, while also providing a very adorable few minutes. Videos like these are the kind of viral cutesy videos that I have no problem spreading.
In fact, I will admit that I was quite surprised that we could train an animal to use an inhaler. However, this only goes to show that the picture we humans have of animals is often flawed and full of misconceptions. I also believe I am speaking for us all when I wish this otter a safe and healthy life!
