hi i guess i came from some imageboard list
Hello! Welcome in, it's neat to see that people are still looking for boards in current year and I think you found a rather nice one personally. I hope you enjoy your stay
This is great news! The article also mentions an action plan for otters is in the works which would be great for conservation efforts I'm sure

I’m learning Welsh right now, and I just got the word otter, “dyfrgi.” I also know that otter in Latin is “lutra.“ I don’t know about any other languages though, do y’all know any other words for otter?
Off the top of my head
* wydra in polish and other slavic languages
* sudal in korean
* kawauso in japanese
* loutre in french
* lontra in italiano
* tha'leb el ma` in arabic
* saukko in finish
* su samuru in Turkish
* kunduz in kazakh and some central asian languages (also means beaver)
* nutria in spanish
* rai ca in vietnamese (pronounced sai ta)
* fisi maji in (pretty sure it was) swahili
I recall we once had a spreadsheet of them, does anyone still have it?
Forgot memerang in Malay and berang-berang in Indonesian

Riro, from the aquarium Marine World Uminonakamichi, has passed away today, 2025/1/4 (Japan). He was 17; They say his health has been deteriorating. The aquarium has been raising sea otters continuously since 1989, but Riro was the last sea otter they had. That means the only captive sea otters in Japan are Kira and May at the Toba aquarium.

It's always sad when an otter passes away but they had lived a long time and at least they didnt suffer in the end. He certainly was the cool uncle, such an ambassador, he will be missed.

Hi otter friends! I'm planning Party Animals custom games on Christmas Day and New Year's Eve. More details will be announced later but it will be in EU server and CET New Year. I'll probably stay an hour longer for British New Year too if anyone is interested. I'm also thinking of making it a bigger invite so I can be sure there will be at least some friends I can coordinate the events with, though that may mean we won't all be playing as Otta but we'll see.

Im game, as always, though if youd rather hang with your people thats a ok too. It will be a happy new year regardless
Sure, I'll keep you posted. I'm still not even really sure how this new year's event works in Party Animals. If you're the person on my friends list I can probably even invite you if I do end up in someone else's custom game and they're fine with it. You can message people on your friends list, I'm pretty sure.
I haven't received a reply from the German streamer so I'll just go and make the lobby at 23:00 CET. I hope you'll join.
Who can I add? I'm on the free version.
You can add me. My friend ID is JHK4DD.

I struck me how I thought ASCO's range included Japan, but when I check the map they aren't even close. They just seem to be so popular over there.
Anyways, is there a manga where otters are featured prominently?

Never forget the Japanese otter..
So sad they went extinct, maybe as cloning technology progresses there might be hope to restore the species if there are enough DNA samples left

Today I learned that final fantasy 14 has a cute little otter pet you can summon to follow you around. I didn't really vibe with FF14 but a friend of mine says she might try it just for the chance to have an otter so I may wind up joining her.

So we have leaves on heads, but what about flowers below noses? Could be worth additional research.

Interesting proposal. I only have this specimen, but the flower is slightly above the nose. Do you have some more examples?

I found this one! Also a lot of AI art and some art I can't tell is AI or not.

Hey otters, the UKWOT is a wonderful charity caring for the otters in Britain, and it looks like they're in some financial trouble now. It would be great if we could help out a little by donating or adopting one of their three lovely otters. Personally I'm thinking of buying an adoption package but I haven't decided on an otter yet...
Anyways, these people do great things for otters so I hope they can get the money they need. https://ukwildottertrust.org/

They've got two new young otters at the sanctuary! Hansel and Gretel were taken in as orphaned cubs a couple of weeks ago. Aren't they the cutest pair of otts you ever did see?
Aww, they're so cute! I'm sure they're gonna be getting the best care with the UKWOT
More UKWOT news, a kind soul has donated land so they will have more space to care for otters. It'll take a few years to have it up to full speed, but it looks like it will more than double the amount of enclosures they have which is fantastic https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c4g5p4yngzno
That's wonderful news! Especially great to hear they won't have to turn any otters away anymore.
Exactly! I was surprised to hear about them in the news and very happy that it was good news to be shared :)
