North American River Otter

Lontra canadensis

Description:

Sutro Sam is a river otter that found its way to the ruins of the Sutro Baths in San Francisco. Apparently it has been some time since a river otter was spotted in The City. Water in the old foundation for the baht house is brackish. There are fish in the water that also attract waterfowl.
