Service-Hinweis: Einmal jährlich könnt ihr euch im @otterzentrum Hankensbüttel als "Otterspotter" ausbilden lassen.

Plötzlich steht ihr am verregneten Sonntag mit Gummistiefeln unter Brücken, vermesst Pfotenabdrücke, schnüffelt an Kotspuren und seid akkreditiert um bei Citizen-Science-Populationserhebungen nach standardisierter Methode mitzuhelfen.

Happy #WorldOtterDay! Sea otters were hunted almost to extinction between 1741 and 1911. With hunting bans and conservation efforts their populations are recovering in some areas. I was very lucky to photograph this mom and pup in the wild in Monterey, CA. I hope to see them in Washington some day!
