EDITORS COMMENTS

Meet our star of the show - a charismatic Neotropical river otter (Lontra longicaudis) who seems to be having an absolute blast in its watery playground. With its sleek body and mischievous eyes, this mustelid mammal is perfectly adapted for life both on land and in water. Its long tail helps it navigate through flowing rivers effortlessly, making it a true master of aquatic acrobatics. And boy, does it know how to make a splash! As we observe this playful creature diving into crystal-clear freshwater, one can't help but admire its incredible camouflage skills. Blending seamlessly with its surroundings, our otter friend becomes one with nature as if performing an underwater ballet. This photo not only captures the beauty and grace of this South American river otter but also highlights Costa Rica's rich biodiversity hotspot status. It serves as a reminder that these enchanting creatures rely on pristine habitats like these for their survival.
