Introduction

As everyone knows, the otter is only second to humans for the mammals who most like to hold hands. Otters are carnivorous mammals that can be found by various bodies of water, where they do their hunting. They are known for their playful personalities and ability to use simple tools (rocks to open shells).

Feeding Habits

Primarily feeding on fish and invertebrates, the otter will dive and hold their breath for long periods of time (similar to that of a seal) while hunting and often spend 3-8 hours a day hunting.

Disposition and Social Habits

Playful, friendly, and can be solitary or in groups depending on their stage of life.

Habitat

Near and in the water (oceans and rivers).

Fylgia

Most compatible: Dire Rat

  • While some might think the otter would would be closer associated with the dire badger, it actually is much more amicable, playful, and friendly, like it's dire rat cousin.

Other notes

Currently being researched... ((this specific otter didn't have a label saying if it was a river or sea otter, though it was found on a beach))
