  Otters in Sight:
Happy Additions

Our wish has just been granted. The Smooth Otters (Lutra perspicillata) as reported in the previous issue of Wetlands are not only here but now with a pup too! They were sighted recently by our Senior Ranger and confirmed by our postgraduate researcher.

This is indeed good tidings as we were all hoping that they are a courting pair and would bring us more of kind here in the Park. In addition to the Smooth Otters, we have also released some Asian Small-clawed Otters (Anoyx cinera).

Treasure the precious moments if you sight these adorable creatures. Take as many pictures as you want ... but please do not feed them or touch them. Leave them in the wild as they should be.
