This otter is bigger that the Eurasian otter and has short smooth
fur and large webbed feet. It is variable in colour from nearly black to
sandy brown with a white to yellow chin and throat patch. The feet are
large and webbed and they have a flattened tail.
It occurs in south east
Asia from Indonesia through to China
and lives in rivers, estuaries and mangrove swamps and requires
undisturbed vegetation adjacent to the water. It lives alongside the Asian
short clawed otter and often with the Eurasian.
