- MY SEARCH FOR OTTERS
Join me as I head up to the Isle of Mull, Scotland, in search of one of the most-loved animals, the otter. After spending time photographing and filming them in the wild I spend some time learning about their conservation, and the work being done to protect this species by the UK Wild Otter Trust.

I love otters. They are so sweet and cute. Very nice video 😻😻😻
Thank you very much!
Nice video. Thanks for sharing. Big Like 199
Nice Otter video, I am a Wildlife guide on Skye and they are the top of the list for my clients' everyday spent with these animals is magic but they are so easily disturbed and like solitude, Skye is so busy and they frequently get daily disturbed by kayak groups and noisy people!
Ah wow, awesome job! I did some guiding on Isle of Seil for a bit after my undergraduate degree and people always hoped to see the otters there also
Nice, love Otter,s, so funny ❤️ 🇫🇷 🇨🇩
Another awesome film. The feeding shot with the octopus was incredible. You're so inspiring.
I found you from the show the proof is out there 😍 thank god 😊
Beautiful.....
One of the best short films showcasing this fabulous creature I've seen. Great photography very sensitively shot together with a real passion for wildlife on Mull. Look forward to more of the same!
An awesome video!💞
I love to see the sea otters’ bond~
Thank you for sharing this video~🤗
Hehe they are the cutest aren't they!
You are doing wonderful things--very inspiring--and the animals are beautiful. Thank you!
Thank you so much!
Thanks for share the video❤
My pleasure 😊
Hey Roxy ! came across your channel while searching for wildlife in UK. Keep doing good work, I have subscribed to learn more. (a fellow wildlife biologist & filmmaker)
Lovely film Roxy. I'm off to Mull next April for 2 weeks and can't wait. Otter is one of my main 4 targets.
I am absolutely certain you will see one there, would be very surprised if you didn't!
Just found you and absolutely love your work. Please keep them coming.
Very good. I like the presenting throughout and the octopus catch.
Thank you! The octopus was quite something wasn't it!
Wow you got skills
Amazing video 😍😍😍😍😍
Thank you so much, I am glad you liked it!
Wonderful video - thanks so much! The octopus shot especially was stunning.
One small request for next time; might it be possible for the background music to be quieter/ not there all the time? I have ADHD and can't filter sounds easily; the music kept distracting me and made it hard to follow what you were saying. I suspect viewers with ASD (autism) might find this difficult too.
Whoooooooooo I love sooo much your channel :O!
Really good film. Very informative and well produced, like something the beeb would air. Great job.👍
A cracking video, really nice. I've seen otters from the sea kayak around Mull myself, it is quite a treat but this footage is just to die for. 👌
Beautiful video Roxy,you are definitely in the perfect job,baby Otters 🤷😂 there is always more we can be doing to protect their habitat,I live in Orkney which has quite a lot of them and is encouraging,sadly there are always a few that die on the roads as they cross to get to Lochs,Sea.
Oh man I love animals so much.
Well done! Enjoyed the film. Well edited and nice job on camera (you and the otters!).
loved this 😍
Amazing work roxy
Thank you so much :)
Beautyful Video Roxy👍 about loving and interesting animals.
Thank you! They definitely are very interesting animals, could watch them for days on end.
@@RoxytheZoologist I like to believe you.
I hope I have the opportunity to see and take photos of the otters when I visit my son in London next year. I am definitely planning a longer trip to England. Warm greetings from Germany. Mounty
Wonderful video!
Thank you! I am glad you think so!
👍🏽
How to become zoologist and wildlife photographer ?
Yes mam I also want
I want to be your otter 🦦
Greta video. Amazing images. But would love to hear you better. Your background music levels are too high relative to vocal track.
Thank you
Ohh,Roxyy,Hiiii!.Let's meet with Youuu!My name is Viktor.Write meee at this place.
Can you be my friend
Otters decimate fish numbers. Otters sport kill fish that lead to the hungry Bear. Dirty little secret otter lovers don't want you to know. Many Bear attacks in the Alaska, USA and Canada because of otters sport killing fish. Bears wake up from hibernation with very little fish to eat. The Otters' time was before the 1800's when multitudes of fish for all. Sea otters decimate fish, crab, squid, and oyster populations near the sea coasts. Now otters belong in a controlled exhibit or extinct. If you want river fish for bears you can't have otters.
who are you to decided that all those animals you listed, especially bears, are more important than otters. Many animals engage in surplus killing whether it be for sport or population/species-control like dolphins, orcas, wolves, BROWN BEARS, minks and especially humans.
@@VictorGonzalez-vb1gt Again Sea and River Otters time has past. They are sport killers. Bears eat a portion of a fish, then the birds eat the rest. Bears eat portions of game and the smaller animals feed after. Bears feed alot of other animals.
Minks eat bees and can kill chickens, cats and dogs. Minks are dangerous. Dolphins and Orcas haven't sport killed anything. Otters will sport kill fish in an area and stay until the dead fish are rotted and attack anything that gets close to it. So I've explained my reasons why. I dont get to decide. It's my opinion from being in the wild. We have laws to protect species in the west. Most species have gone extinct due to reproduction issues not humans.
The U.K. otter is now protected by British law due to it being persecuted and almost hunted to the point of extinction.
Humans kill. More fish than otters and everything else through consumption and pollution .. fact
