I'm not sure why the giant otter is endangered i am doing a project so i was looking for the answer but no one knew so i decided to write this down to see if anyone could try to figure it out thank you
there are 20 spp. of Xenopus (african clawed frogs). Xenopus laevis (Common Clawed frog)is the most common and usually what is refereed to as the African clawed frog even though its only 1 spp. of clawed frog. This spp has been widely used as a research model as well as pet trade. Although most African Clawed frogs in the wild can be seen as at risk of endangerment, due to the fact that they are very region specific and limited to a small range, I believe only X.gilli (Cape Clawed frog) is officially endangered.
The scientific name of the Asian small-clawed otter is Aonyx cinerea. The genus name Aonyx is derived from Greek, meaning "without claws," referring to the otter's notably small claws compared to other otter species. The species name cinerea comes from Latin, meaning "ash-colored," which describes the animal's fur coloration. Together, the name reflects both a physical characteristic and a visual trait of this unique otter species.
Yes, African clawed frogs are vertebrates. It was actually the first vertebrate to be cloned. The African clawed frog's front legs are small with unwebbed fingers.
African Clawed frogs have fully webbed toes with small claws on their hind feet, while regular frogs have unwebbed toes. African Clawed frogs lack a visible external eardrum, known as the tympanum, which is present in regular frogs. Additionally, African Clawed frogs tend to have a smoother skin compared to the typically rough skin of regular frogs.
The weasel is a small carnivorous mammal that is related to the marten. Both belong to the Mustelidae family, which also includes animals like otters and badgers.
I think its scientific name is Aonyx Cinera
There are sea otters and other otters. In the category of "other" otters, you can include the North American River Otter, Giant Otter of South America, Asian small clawed otters, Congo clawless otters, Capr clawless otters, Southern river otters, hairy nosed otters, spot necked otters, neo tropical long tailed otters, and others I may fail to mention.
I think the North Georgia Zoo is your best bet. See the following: http://www.northgeorgiazoo.com/otter-encounter.html. For $54/person, you can directly interact with Asian Small Clawed Otters.
This species of otters is recorded as feeding mainly on invertebrates such as crustaceans and molluscs. However, they have also been seen to feed on vertebrates, in particular amphibians.
Yes, it is a vertabrate.It has a backbone.Part of the back bone is what forms the tail.

Two different species of otter inhabit India. The smooth-coated otter (Lutrogale perspicillata) lives in wet areas throughout most of India. The Asian (Oriental) small-clawed otter (Aonyx cinerea) can be found in select areas of southern and northern India.
