Inspiration in Algonquin: The Otter

Algonquin’s wetlands attract one of the Park’s most charismatic animals, the otter. Otters typically establish a burrow close to the water’s edge, which allows them easy access to water for their frequent hunting expeditions. Fish are their most common food source, but they sometimes add frogs and turtles to their diet. When not hunting, otters are known to be playful creatures, wrestling, chasing, and swimming together.
