***About River Otters:

*** River otters, known scientifically as Lontra canadensis, are aquatic mammals noted for their playfulness and agility in water environments. Typically found in river systems, they are adept at swimming and diving, using these skills to hunt fish—their primary diet. Otters' social behavior, especially in family groups, reflects strong bonds; parents are highly attentive to their young, teaching them essential survival skills. Their dense, water-repellent fur makes them well-suited to their often-chilly aquatic habitats. Conservation efforts are crucial for maintaining healthy populations of river otters, as they play significant roles in their ecosystems, indicating the health of freshwater environments.
