I can't stop watching these otters. I think they were posted here before but there

are many videos up now. Here is one with the girl, Hanna, "Special moments". I thought I read somewhere that these are endangered otters. Whatever; this couple treats them like royalty. They took an outing to an aquarium and I felt sorry for the otters there because their life was not at all as full and playful as these guy's lives are.

Kotaro (male) DOB 11/10/2017
