Mamma otter teaching her pup how to hunt crayfish

During an early morning rain shower, an adult North American river otter and her yearling pup catch and feed on crayfish in the Umpqua River near Elkton in southwestern Oregon on Sunday, June 13, 2021. Fish is a favored food among the otters, but they also consume various amphibians, freshwater clams, mussels, snails, small turtles and crayfish.

  1. Nice photograph! Don't know much about otter. It's looking nice that Otter and her her yearling pup are enjoying crayfish. Wonderful creature. I think they are not harmful for people.
