Is it April 15th already?

I just finished my taxes. Normally I get them done within the first month of the new year but after an incident last year involving my employer's accountant and a mistake on my W-2 that ended up being a huge pain in the ass, I decided to wait it out and see if any mistakes were made this year before filling.

I was finishing up when I came to this section which asked if I wanted to donate any money to any special funds. Everything looks like the usual. But then I saw the last one.


Don't get me wrong, I love sea otters! But what makes them so special that they get their own special mention with the IRS? Why sea otters over any other animal?
