Happy Otter Day

Here is a quick look at the small clawed otters found on Discovery Island at the Animal Kingdom



These otters are found in South East Asia and India. They are listed as Vulnerable by the IUCN. That means they are one step away from being endangered. Besides habitat destruction, pollution is the biggest threat to this species. Pollution has caused a big reduction in fish population, which, of course, is the animals primary food source.
