Answer 4

An otter is a long, weasel-like animal with big, webbed paws, and a long, thick tail. They live near water and spend most of their time in the water. There are river otters and ocean dwelling otters. They're the animals you see floating in the water, on their backs, with a clam shell resting on their belly. They use rocks to crack the shells open. They're very cute but are strong enough to take down a deer. In South America, they attack and eat Caymans (similar to a crocodile) in the rivers.
