they’re just the cutest animals ever to grace the earth. they’re so rambunctious and silly and sweet and the way they swim is so satisfying. i look at them and i smile with a joy i don’t know if i’ve ever felt at any other moment in life
I used to always say elephants and I’m still fascinated by them but river otters are the one animal form I would take if I had the chance. They’re so sleek and glorious!
Also they spend a way higher percentage of their time playing than many other animals!! They even make slides on rocks in rivers 😭 I want to gambol away my days with them!
*i know the emoji is a sea otter!! Justice for my sleek river boys*
I have a folder of them I rewatch every time I need some oxytocin. The ones with pets are cute fr but the ones with wild animals are gems.
The most obvious but still the most surprising revelation I had is they are like us (or more likely we’re like them)
