Meso-Carnivores Home River Otters Restoring River Otters to New Mexico River otters once thrived throughout much of the United States. Trapping caused the decline or extinction of many state populations. Fortunately, 21 states have actively worked to restore or reintroduce otters. The only state where otters were once found but have not been reintroduced is New Mexico. But that may soon change as the state is examining the possibility of returning these magnificent animals to their rivers. Defenders of Wildlife is a member of the New Mexico River Otter Working Group , which is a broad-based coalition formed to implement a strategy to promote the restoration of the river otter to the rivers of New Mexico.

Swamp Tour: Illinois River Otter Preserve Gate Map Site Search Bog ... Map You have arrived at one of the most popular spots on the Swamp Tour....the river otter pool. Here you can spend hours watching the river otters cavort, dive, swim and run in and out of their den openings. After a long absence, river otters in Illinois are making a comeback in our wetlands. They are a great indicator species for Illinois' wetlands because they only live where there is clean water and suitable habitat. They were in trouble and all but disappeared when the water quality declined throughout the wetlands in Illinois but with a concerted effort by governemental and environmental agencies, Illinois is cleaning up its act. In 1994, the Department of Natural Resources started a reintroduction program and released over 100 otters into healthy central and southern Illinois riverine wetlands. This program has been so successful, that further reintroductions have been put on hold. River otters are important to the ecosystem for many reasons; the following are just a few:

River Otters in the Biomes Center Mill Pond These photos were taken by Roberto Bessin, a sculptor whose studio is next to the Biomes Marine Biology Center. Roberto specializes in huge metal sculptures of birds and is also an accomplished painter and photographer. Here is an article about him and some of his work. In the mill pond next to Biomes lives a colony of River Otters. Normally very secretive, during the winter they can often be seen frolicking on the ice. On a cold winter morning Roberto and I spotted a pair on the opposite bank of the pond These two became curious and moved toward us using a series of breathing holes they cut into the ice. One of them moved closer, hauling itself out of the water and onto the ice. Otters were hunted nearly to extinction during colonial times and are now slowly recovering in numbers. Their biggest problem today is a lack of habitat, which our mill pond provides The second otter joins the first one. We've watched these two grow over the years and they appear to now be full size adults A third otter, which we didn't notice at first, joins the other two in wondering what these two strange people standing on the pond bank are up to

identification habitat behavior Tracking Otters: How to Find Them and Maybe Understand What They Are All About but please don't trap and kill them. What you want to do is be trapped by the otters. That's happened several times to me. I'll see their tracks and signs and situate myself in just the right spot where one or a half dozen otters will freeze me in my tracks. Then I can't escape the lessons they give me, and I'll try to share those lessons with you. I saw that fellow above after noticing his tracks over a dam for about a week. Then late one morning I was pondering the new tracks in the mud of the dam, looked down stream, and here he came. Then after he scooted by me, he was chased by the critter that made the dam. I learned a lot that day. (Scroll down below and read about a recent encounter) Since 1994 I have been hiking with a camcorder on an island in the St. Lawrence River just east of Lake Ontario, and all the photos on this web page were lifted from those videos. Maybe not the best quality but in the image below you can still make out the six otters on the lodge two heads together, two tails and two embracing!

Ellis Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Subphylum: Vertebrata Class: Mammalia Order: Carnivora Family: Mustelidae Subfamily: Lutrinae Genus: Lontra Species: Lontra canadensis Geographic Range North American river otters once occurred throughout Canada and the United States, except for areas of southern California, New Mexico, and Texas, and the Mohave desert of Nevada and Colorado. In Mexico they are found in the delta areas of the Rio Grande and Colorado river. These otters are now rare or locally extinct throughout much of the eastern, central, and southern United States. Biogeographic Regions: nearctic native Habitat North American river otters are found anywhere there is a permanent food supply and easy access to water. They can live in freshwater and coastal marine habitats, including rivers, lakes, marshes, swamps, and estuaries. River otters can tolerate a variety of environments, including cold and warmer latitudes and high elevations. North American river otters seem to be sensitive to pollution and disappear from areas with polluted waters. North American river otters build dens in the burrows of other mammals, in natural hollows, such as under a log, or in river banks. Dens have underwater entrances and a tunnel leading to a nest chamber that is lined with leaves, grass, moss, bark, and hair.
