Welcome to our website,
a site dedicated to informing the public on the nutrition of the North American river otter (Lontra canadensis) and the European river otter (Lutra lutra). With this goal in mind, we will provide an overview on all aspects of each otter's lifestyle to better understand the food choices made by each species.
