I’ve never had much exposure to otters growing up. It saddens me to think that I went through my early development without an appreciation for all things Lutrinae. Luckily, we have the internet.

Look at them! They’re so melodramatic!

This one is extremely disappointed with you.

Like most things, they’re cuter in baby form:

They can’t even resist holding on to other otters! (Get them in t-shirt form!)

And there’s a whole blog about them called the Daily Otter! Thanks for the tip, @level5vegan!

I don’t know… there’s just something really great about them.
