Otters Playing


Our two otter cubs, Ottermus Prime and Beatrix Otter, have been real stars over the last couple of months. They seem to have got in to a habit of having a play session shortly after they have been out for the morning keeper talk. This means a lot of people have been hanging around to see them in actions, and it has been great fun.

They end up chasing each other over the banks, in and out of the water, tossing and turning in the water and play fighting too. I managed to take a lot of photos, here are a few below.



Otto pretty pleased with himself having found a root to play with. 



Play fighting on one of the islands.

In amongst the reeds.















They are both really playful, but Otto seems to have a bit more mischief about him. He can find fun in anything to play with. Even jumping out the water to grab and play with the leaves on the trees.











Thanks for looking :-)
