Opis
Large rivers (Sava, Drava, Mura) are too polluted for them, therefore, they is found only in smaller and less polluted tributaries. The Eurasian otter has a brown back and creamy colored abdomen. The muscular tail serves as a rudder when it floats and dives. It dips into the water for a maximum of two minutes. The male defends the territory (up to 40 square kilometers) by marking it with excrement. Mating is not season-specific.
