North American River Otter
Lontra canadensis
26.3587, -80.0831
Field Notes
Description:
Several river otters shared a tender kiss and frolicked in the water and on the grass. They like to roll around in the sand; and they blew bubbles in the water like a kid with a straw in his milk.
Habitat:
Along an inland fresh water canal in western Boca Raton, FL
Notes:
It looks like there was one large male and two others in the group but I can't tell it is a female and child as the two smaller ones were close in size. I believe it is though, as some time ago there was a family with one youngster who came by. One of the otters caught a fish and ate it while swimming so he could keep up with the family.
