Happy otter

I love watching otter videos (hence my name). You can’t watch one without smiling. This one (an Asian small clawed otter named Oscar) is one of the cutest I’ve ever seen.

Tragically, this pet otter (the owner lives in Bali, where it’s legal to keep them as pets) was deliberately poisoned by a neighbor shortly after this video was made. I just can’t understand how some people can be so cruel to a helpless animal.

It looks like Oscar had a good life though.

I love the song too.

  1. I love all kinds of animal videos. Today I saw one with a sheep which is acting like a dog because it grew up with dogs, just like my sheep. I had a smile on my face for hours πŸ™‚

  2. This video reminds me of why I chose my username. Besides being crazy about the little critters, they live totally in the moment, just enjoying life as it comes. They worry about nothing, and never lose their sense of play and fun. Sure, maybe their playful behavior has evolutionary/survival advantages (it’s all “practice” for hunting in the same way a kitten will play with a toy mouse) but even in humans, everything we do, including having fun, has some kind of evolutionary.survival reason behind it.
