Yes, otters can have orange teeth due to the presence of iron in their diet, particularly from the crustaceans and other marine animals they consume. This iron can cause the enamel of their teeth to take on a reddish or orange hue. While it may look unusual, it is a natural occurrence and not harmful to their health.
