We were at a zoo of sorts when I saw them. They were swimming, their fur sleeked back as they came up out of the water. They rolled, they played, they swam up to shore. I was enthralled to see these two swimming otters.
They look like they are having so much fun. Here is my painting of them on tshirts.
Otters are mammals that belong to the weasel family. Weasels are known for being slender carnivores with brownish fur. In northern regions, the brownish fur turns white in the winter.
Otter fans can showcase their love for otters with an otters license plate frame.
Here's a fun way to say Thank you to otter lovers:
Otters live mostly in the water, but they can come to shore to rest or to sleep. However, they can also sleep in the water while laying on their backs.
Otters may also be getting ready for a meal when they're on their backs. They'll use hard tools, like rocks, to smash open their hard shell sea critter dinner.
Sea otter mothers give birth while in the water. They also nurse their young while laying on their backs.
Do you like otters? Do you have an interesting tidbit to share about otters?
