African clawless otter?

>>2363
No
Shall I reveal the answer?

>>2365
I’m gonna take one more shot: is it a North American River Otter?

>>2370
It's actually a giant otter!

>>2372
That was a tricky one. Compared with other otters >>2166 the giant otters ears are really small for its head.

Otters like eggs too.

>>2336
But do they eat them? Or just play with them?

>>2337 Eggs and small birds are part of otter's diet

>>2337
It sure looks like the ott in >>2336 is about to munch on that egg he’s holding

>>2343 About to take a big bite for sure

>>761
His ottery qualities are more condensed this way.

>>824
What if too much otter is concentrated into a too small space? Do we get an otter black hole?

>>845 Quite the opposite, my friend.
More like a new star birthing.

How does a small otter catch a big fish?

>>2024 It compensates with viciousness.

Truly heartwarming, and nice footage too. I hope the otters will survive

This man is a hero for otters

It's certainly nice to know that Chile is being successfully ottered.

>>2301
Chile first, next the world

Heaven just got another angel

>Their fish comes by ferry from the mainland and unfortunately this has been cancelled a few times due to the storms.
>Luckily, our dedicated supplier has managed to get someone to drive all the way round to Skye to keep the otters' fish stockpile topped up.

Thank God. Fish for the otters.

This guy can rip crabs in half

When he swims he doesn't get wet. The water gets otter

>>1995
He's like the eye of a storm!

It's winter now. Otters love the winter.

>>2052

>>1995
It also brings happiness to my brain.

What do otters think about the spring?

Imagine the nicest most beautiful river flowing through untouched nature.
Imagine lots of big, nutritious, delicious fish swimming all through it.
God decided there needs to be a big weasel in there to chase and eat them.
This animal is great at swimming, but lives on land. It only goes into the water to hunt or play.
This animal is called the Otter.

>>695
God knows best.

You don't explain otters because you can't. If you want to teach someone about otters, you simply show them.

^^^Real wisdom

"Otter" isn't something you learn. It has to be felt, experienced. You can study it in textbooks, even look at pictures. But nothing beats truly experiencing it.

RIP Micas.
You're busting shells in the seas of Heaven now, buddy

Fines are just cost of doing business. If you're a big enough company you can get away with murder.

Video of a marine otter unsuccessfully trying to clean oil from its fur by rubbing in the sand. Otters are difficult to capture and so many can't be rescued. Many have already been found dead.

Is anyone working to clean the spill up?

>>2171 Yes, reportedly they've got some ragtag volunteer groups working to clean up the oil. it could take months though.

>>2172
Do you know of any organizations to which one could donate to help with the cleanup effort?

Otters are the ottest. It's impossible to be otter than an otter.

Actually, here are some otters checking a box.

Otters aren't otters, there are many different kinds of otter.

I'd imagine animal dreams are just as whacky as ours. Mashups of palaces the otter has been and other otters it met before, but with some crazyness mixed in.

Maybe something like this, it's an otter's face and also a cirlcle of three people. I think it fits the theme.

>>2018 That's pretty clever. I like it!

Only 2 days to go, better send in now

It's a feeling, can't explain it

>>2132
Why aren't you?

>>2132
Otters are the pinnacle of existence and nobility, and provide a Platonic form which all life should strive to be like

>>1880
Aren't there like three different subspecies?

>>1914
Ah yes

Upside down awake otter.

>>1914

And here's a map

>>1978

>>2049
Looks like a quokka

>>2049
Why is it green?

>>2073
Because it's an otter spirit

Essence of muddy river water.

I hope one day I get to sniff an otter

>>1886
Can one ever truly prepare for otters?

>>1887
They always seem to come otter nowhere.

Can't wait to see them chomp my arm while I try to pet it

>>1890
Otter-human affection cycle:
Pet, pet
Bite, bite
Snuggle, snuggle
