OOTD (Otter of the Day)

Congo Clawless Otter!

Theese silly guys are a are SubSpecies of the African Clawless Otter. Congo Clawless otters are sespeifclly found in and around the Congo of Africa. They are 24-39 inches long and weight from 31-57 pounds, a larger otter but still not as big as an Giant River Otter. Theese otters are unique because of their markings and behavior, they prefer land over water and prefer marshes, wetlands and swamps as habits. What makes theese otter special is their rarity, marking and preferences. Sadly, not very much is known about theese goobers :(, they're one of my favorite otter species and i hope mote is learnt about them! and again please DO NOT pet one or you might be missing a hand.
