| Lontra canadensis | North American River Otter | 2017-07-26 | Michele Hunt and Martha Blake | One | Around 1:30 pm on Wednesday July 26 a brown otter found its way into my neighbors fenced in yard. We noticed because it was chased by her dogs. We contained the dogs and the otter was able to squeeze through the fence wire and retreat to the field behind our houses. - An otter got into the fenced yard of Michele Hunt and her dogs were chasing it.

| Lontra canadensis | North American River Otter | 2011-03-08 | George Andrews | 3 | Kayaking at 10:30 AM on a clear, windy, and cool day, I was using a lake point for a windbreak when I spotted three otters nearing the point from the main lake side. As they rounded the point, they spotted me and immediately dove, surfacing moments later in different areas, two of them hissing/barking for a short time before continuing their travels into the cove. - Cane Creek Park lake (Union County) | photo | 02_Photo |
