Otter Needs a Bath After This Bath

Via IUCN SSC Otter Specialist Group, which writes:

The Eurasian otter (Lutra lutra) is making a careful comeback in parts of Germany including at Zoo Görlitz, set in the Lausitztal region of eastern Saxony.

Beyond caring for its resident otters, Zoo Görlitz plays an active role in conservation. Its wildlife rescue station rehabilitates injured and orphaned otters from the surrounding region, while the zoo supports national efforts to restore wetland habitats and reconnect river systems along the River Havel. These projects are vital for improving coexistence between people and otters across Germany.
