The Asian small-clawed otter is the smallest otter species and the giant otter and sea otter are the largest. They have very soft, insulated underfur, which is protected by an outer layer of long guard hairs. This traps a layer of air which keeps them dry, warm, and somewhat buoyant under water.
Two otter species are strictly marine: the sea otter (Enhydra lutris) of the Pacific Coast of North America and the much smaller marine otter (Lontra felina) from the coast of Peru and Chile.
However, three species of otter have blunt claws or none at all. They are the Asian small-clawed otter, African clawless otter, and Congo clawless otter.
The most widely distributed otter is the Eurasian otter, found throughout Europe, North Africa, and Asia to Japan and Indonesia. Typical otter habitat includes both water and land, except for the sea otter, which rarely comes ashore.
There are 14 species of otter around the world and many of them are endangered. Use the links below to explore the different species and find out more about otters in other parts of the world.
