"Sleepy" Otters..........

Otters are semi-aquatic mammals of the Mustelidae family, related to stoats, weasels, skunks and badgers. Otters have a keen sense of smell and sharp hearing on land... in clear water they can spot prey with their eyes... and in murky waters their whiskers detect the twitching of fish. Otters do not hibernate in winter, though they tend to be less active, spending much of their time in a "holt", which is an "otter's den". "What"? "Otters don't hibernate"? "Somebody forgot to tell these Otters".................
