Description
When: November 21, 2019
Where: Ouwehands Dierenpark Rhenen, The Netherlands
For years - indeed, for as long as we remember visiting this zoo - there's been an amazing group of Otters in this enclosure. This is however the last photo we have of them, from our last visit so far. The Otters have been replaced, by Coypus I believe.
They did give us a good farewell, even though neither of us probably knew that's what it was...
Species: Oriental Small-Clawed Otter (Aziatische Kleinklauwotter)
Latin name: Aonyx Cinerea
Originates from the Oriental.
Current status: Near Threatened
Did you know:
…The Oriental Small-Clawed Otter naturally is named after its claws; they do not extend beyond the fleshy end pads of its partially webbed fingers and toes.
