River Otter

Floating down a river on its back, while taking a well-earned nap, is the river-otter! A semiaquatic mammal mainly endemic to North America, the river otter is actually a close relative of the weasel, sharing many of the same habits and physical characteristics. Scientific Name: Lontra Canadensis  Characteristics: Although river otters spend most of their time in the water, this one has taken to the land to come over and meet you! Professionally sculpted and hand-painted to ensure true-to-life detail, this figurine will turn your home into a busy and bustling river ecosystem! Size and Color: 5.5 inches long and 4 inches wide, this adorable river otter is about as long as a soda can on its side and as wide as the length of a credit card. Depicting the most common fur coloration, this otter figurine is mainly dark brown with an off-white chest and face.
