North American River Otter

Lontra canadensis

Description:

We had the wonderful experience of meeting these Otters at a sanctuary in Devon. The trip was during a small family trip to the River Dart and I had hoped to photograph some name Otters wild on the river. These Otters are quite the performer, they were more than happy to be photographed and lived showing off!

Habitat:

North America including Canada. Can be found in clean rivers

Notes:

Captive otters seen at the Butterfly & Otter sanctuary in Devon.

Nice portrait. You could add this to the Captive Animals mission.

I love them, could spend hours watching them. Mind you, I can do that with most animals!

Otters always remind me of The Wind in the Willows!
