This is the first really good article (well organized, informative, concise) on an animal I have seen so far: all articles on animals should be like this one.

That being said however, how reliable is the statement that says otters will swim in circles to bring fish up from the bottom?

I've been watching otters in the wild for almost 25 years, and I have never seen that behavior.

I'm going to try to add some detail and elaboration to this article; maybe create a new section or two. What's already here is good, but there's always room for improvement. -JSS

Thanks for your contribution JSS. I would encourage you to consider contributing to this article, and clarifying it. I certainly think someone with your wealth of experience could make a valuable contribution. -DP

I took this at the zoo today, wondered if you would find it useful. Tim Vickers (talk) 02:24, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
