Description

8 brown and tan river otters, Lontra canadensis, swim in a school of 20 yellow tan and brown minnows in this brown river nature mandala. River otters have tiny eyes and small round ears that occupy a robust and flat-topped head each seemingly out of proportion to the animal’s long and flexible body. Dense velvety fur in shades of black, white brown, tan, and gray covers its body and repels water. Strong muscular legs and webbed feet propel the otter through the water guided by a thick and flexible muscular tail making up one third of its body length of approximately four feet. Adult otters can weigh from twenty to thirty pounds. Artwork featured in the FAA artist's group "Wildlife Artists" 04/25/21.
