Otters are highly social animals, and when raised or cared for by humans, they often form close bonds with their caregivers. Holding hands, or “holding onto” someone, is a natural behaviour for otters — in the wild they hold paws to keep from drifting apart. With a caregiver, this gesture shows trust, comfort, and the strong emotional connection they’ve built through daily care and companionship.

The otters in our care have taken their cozy burrow to the next level! 🦦🦦🦦🦦🦦🦦🦦 Beneath the snow along the shoreline of their pond, they’ve dug out a secret hideaway. While they already have a spacious main entrance, it looks like they're working on a little renovation project—building a second door for even more access to their frosty kingdom ❄️❄️ Who knew otters were such savvy home improvement experts? 🥰 #otters #homemaker #renovationproject #pond #burrow #riverotter #otterpup | Aspen

Otters are playful and social animals, often enjoying physical affection from their caregivers or fellow otters. When an otter receives head cuddles, it shows their trust and comfort, as they love the gentle, soothing touch. These cuddles mimic the bonding behavior otters experience in the wild, where they groom and nuzzle each other for closeness and care. Head cuddles provide a sense of security and warmth, making otters feel loved and safe. Credit unknown Please DM us for credit #animals #cut

Rain or shine, the otters have a great time! 🦦💦 We’re constantly finding new ways to enrich the lives of the animals in our care. You can see how much enjoyment these Asian small-clawed otters get from these seafood-stuffed foraging boxes. Our carnivore keepers pack them full of prawns with the addition of bamboo, so the otters have to work for their meal. This encourages natural foraging behaviours, using their excellent sense of smell to locate the prawns, and their sharp claws and teeth to
