Interesting To Know
  • The short-clawed otter is the smallest of the otters. Its atrophied claws and webbing enables it to swiftly capture its prey in the mud. These otters are prevalent at various zoos, as they are an active type, family-oriented, and loud. Communication between individuals is conducted by loud chirping.
