From the appearance, otters are a more lovely animal. Wild otters generally live in rivers, lakes, swamps and other freshwater basin species. In addition, otters can also be farmed. In zoos, we can see real otters, and sometimes otters can be seen to complete some interactive activities with humans. Some people want to keep otters as pets in their homes because they look very cute. This behavior is also possible, but wild otters can not be kept as pets, which is against the law, and there are certain risks. The otter itself can be used as a pet, but it is expensive to raise it.
1. Space: When raising otters, you need to provide them with enough space to move around in. Specifically, both terrestrial and aquatic environments are needed. It is better to prepare a room specially for them, which can be about 2.8 * 3.5 meters. In which you can put some rockery, tree stumps and other things, so that it can be more like the wild environment, more conducive to their growth.
They also have to prepare a special pool for them, in which they can play. 2. Food: Otters are carnivores in terms of their feeding habits, so they should be provided with sufficient meat at ordinary times. Farmed otters and wild otters have similar food, they can eat some freshwater fish, shrimp, crab, clam, pork, etc., and feed some vegetables properly. It is better not to buy otters that have not been weaned, such otters are not easy to feed, but also need to feed them every day until weaning.
3. Cleaning: When breeding otters, you have to pay attention to cleaning. Otter waste needs to be cleaned up regularly. The water in the pool also needs to be kept clean, so it is necessary to change the water according to the situation.
