Smiling River Otter Up Close

This otter sits tall and still, eyes wide and bright. His round cheeks puff out beside a big button nose, and his tiny mouth curves up into a friendly grin. Thick whiskers spring out in all directions as if he just heard something funny.

Little tufts of fur decorate his neck and chest. With his small, rounded ears and soft face, he looks like he is waiting for a friend to join him by the water. Every line on his face invites fresh colors and happy scribbles.

Fun Fact!

While some otters live by the salty sea, many River Otter species can be found hundreds of miles inland, happily living in freshwater rivers, big lakes, and swampy marshes.
