The Otter

Did you know? ...


Male otters are called meowters, females are queens, and the offspring are pups.
They are super smart: they have the ability to create and use tools.
Their average life span is 12 years (double in captivity).
They can remain under water for up to 4 minutes and dive up to 250 feet in search of food!
