Otter spotting in the Pantanal (Paraguay) 

Two curious otters. (Click on the photo to see a larger image.)

Alberto Yanosky, of GUYRA Paraguay, World Land Trust partner organisation in Paraguay, sent this fantastic photo with the following comment:

"This is a photo of the giant otter family living in front of the biological station in our reserves in the pantanal. They are really close and visit the site very curiously every day at 7 am!"

The Giant Otter is one of three endangered 'giants' found in the reserve area. The other two are the Giant Anteater and Giant Armadillo and a lodge currently being constructed in the reserve has been given the name Three Giants Lodge.
