Getting a good river otter pic is on my bucket list - this will have to do for now. I understand that they approach humans quite closely because they are both curious and short-sighted (a trait that helps them see underwater), so I'm hopeful about getting a better pic. I recorded a short video that shows this one taking two running jumps (bounds), then sliding on its belly across the ice... two bounds, slide ... two bounds, slide. This shows the animal in the slide part of its travels.

4 of them behind my house. Sorry for the horrible picture.

We know there are plenty of these guys around, but it is very unusual to actually see one in this area.

Two adults, three kits.

I was standing on the river bank enjoying the peaceful morning when two playful river otters swam right by me and hopped onto a rock.

Saw two guys swimming in the river. One kept on catching things because every time he came up for a breath he kept chewing on something.
