I was lucky enough at lunch to catch the otters’ feeding time. They bark and yelp with excitement, and then all come bounding over to the keeper. She has a large bag of dead mice. With their bright and eager eyes following her, she tosses them mice in an egalitarian fashion. It is simple to do this because once a pup has its mouse it settles down, and starts gnawing, lying full out on its wet furslick stomach. So the keeper can pick out the unlucky pups and toss them a mouse too.

The otters are ridiculously cute. But then so are the mice.
