These Small, Freshwater Otters Are a Fan Favorite at Living Shores

These small, freshwater otters are a fan favorite at Living Shores. They are highly curious, social, playful, and vocal, constantly looking for attention from other otters and the trainers, and they will make all sorts of different-pitched noises to let them know! They are so playful that they quickly tire themselves out and need to take naps often throughout the day, then get right back to playing!
