An elusive carnivore well-suited to land and water. With sweet-smelling spraint and a playful nature, otters are making a comeback and are surprisingly common in waterside woodland. Thick brown fur covers a long slender body, a thick tail and short legs. The chest and belly fur is often paler in colour. They have a broad nose and small ears, with eyes high on the head to enable better vision when they are mostly submerged in the water. The long muscular tail and webbed feet make otters strong swimmers while sensitive whiskers and claws help them to detect and catch their prey.
