Otters

Yes, river otters are considered omnivores. They eat mainly aquatic plantation, but they also frequently eat shellfish they come across.

Sea otters do not have gills because they are mammals.

A large group of sea otters is called a raft.

*Yes some Monkeys use sticks to extract ants from non accessible places.

Giant otters can be found in South America, especially the Amazon river basin. Their numbers are in decline and the animals are becoming rare. This is mainly due to habitat loss and poaching, but the use of toxins, such as mercury, in illegal gold mining is also effecting numbers.

Otters have long tails to keep their balance.

fishers are larger and are more close to the cat family, otters on the other hand are smaller and usually spend time in the water catching fish while fishers hunt on land more and do not swim. yet they are closely related and there really actually isn't any difference

It has resulted in rapid decline in otter population and the species has become endangered.

yeas all the time

Humans are the by far the biggest threat to sea otters, especially since we run the risk of causing an oil spill. But, if you're looking for natural enemies, one is the orca whale, which is eating more and more of them due to the decreasing number of seals. Although orcas are the main natural predator of the sea otter, there have been reports of bears, eagles, stellar sea lions, and even coyotes feeding on a sea otter.

they get out of the water shake a little stand up on all fours and walk

i asked so i want u 2 answere it

No

With use of genetic and fossil evidence, sea otters have been around for at least 5 million years.

well they only eat them if they are salted enough and contain atleast 20% of random stuff on it

Sea Otters are not extinct.

they became endangered by being hunted by the russians

people still poach(george steller waz the reason for this

A chihuahua puppy can leave there mother at 5 weeks old as long as there healthy and eating well. I have had 6 chihuahuas and I have took them all at 5 weeks old. My chihuahua had a litter of puppies and they started eating soft dog food at 4 weeks old. Everyone says a puppy shouldn't be taken from its mother until 6 to 8 weeks. That is not true at all. Every dog I have ever had has been taken at 5 weeks and they are very healthy. Some people also say if you take a puppy that early it causes problems with them biting and playing. That is also not true. So as long as a puppy is eating good it CAN be taken from its mother at 5 weeks of age...

yes

The Sea Otter usually eats the smaller and slower swimming fish, along with other invertebrates like the crabs, clams, snails, abalones, sea urchins, mussels. They eat a wide range of other sea animals. For more details, please see the sites listed below.

Sea Otters can have some very strange physical characteristics such as they have no blubber, instead a very thick fur covers every inch of there bodies. Much like that of an underground animal sea otters consider smell more important than sight and high-sensitive whiskers and front paws are used more than sight in the hunting of prey.

Social characteristics of sea otters are rather odd. Each sex of an otter will join hands together and float on there backs in a big formation stretching from 10-100 otters on average. This formation is called a rompt or a raft. When a rompt of otters enters another's territory another otter will attempt to scare away the pack but fighting amongst these two rompts rarely occurs. During mating season the male will mark the females its mated to by biting its muzzle often leaving scars.

otters live near fresh water to clean the salt out of their fur. They do this to keep it waterproof, otherwise they would die of cold. Er ... no. Otters are aquatic mammals. They have webbing between their toes to help them swim better, and thick waterproof fur that they keep waterproof with their own body oil. They live near rivers and ponds and the ocean because they are aquatic - they eat fish and shellfish and other water animals. Otters are much more easily killed by predators like bears and bobcats when they are out of the water. A swimming river otter is nearly impossible for a predator to catch, though sea otters have more predators (like sharks) that can catch them. Otters enemies are few. The otter pups enemies are largely wolves, large birds of prey and large reptiles. The ability to swim and quick access to water, helps them save themselves. There is evidence that sea otters are being attacked by killer whales. The markings on otter carcasses matches dentition of the orca. Possibly there is evidence of shark attacks, but I am not sure.

give one way otter is sited for swimming

• Since 1973 there have laws restricting hunting of polar bears. Some numbers are still authorised in some countries.
• Since 2004 there are global bans on polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), a synthetic chemical that is still weakening polar bears.

The male sea otter can have as many as fifteen females in his region at a time. When otters mate, it can be a very violent, sometimes causing the female scarring. Now imagine David Attenbergh saying that.
