Species

Otter

The otter is fully protected under the Conservation (Natural Habitats & c.) (Amendment) Regulations 2007 and the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, as amended.

This species is a secretive animal that is generally confined to watercourses, wetlands and coastal areas. It can have territories extending up to 20km and will use a variety of habitats for the establishment of holts (breeding sites) and resting areas.
