OTTERS!

A sixth otter wailed in response,
swimming rapidly towards the
group. Once reunited, they
all headed downriver. It was a
deeply impressive experience
and, from that moment, I was
hooked.
Almost two decades and
many such encounters
later, I still find the giant otter
the most charismatic of
rainforest creatures, with an
incomparable zest for life that
makes a day spent watching a
family endlessly fascinating.
