otters

Otters are semi-aquatic mammals belonging to the family Mustelidae, which also includes weasels and ferrets. Known for their playful behavior, otters are skilled swimmers with streamlined bodies, webbed feet, and dense, water-repellent fur. There are 13 species of otters, including the river otter and the sea otter. River otters inhabit freshwater rivers, lakes, and wetlands, while sea otters are found along coastal waters.
Otters are carnivorous, feeding primarily on fish, crustaceans, and mollusks. They are known for their use of tools, such as rocks, to crack open shellfish. Social animals, otters often live in family groups, with sea otters sometimes holding hands while floating to stay together. Their habitats are increasingly threatened by pollution, habitat destruction, and climate change, making conservation efforts crucial.
