Discover Otter River
Venture to our outdoor zones and get up close and personal with our resident Asian Short-Clawed Otter, Twix.
Watch as he splashes about in the Otter River and snacks on his favourite treats - peanuts!
*Please note- This area is temporarily empty while Twix has a little break, he will be back soon!*
Meet Twix!
Meet our resident cheeky chappy, Twix, our Asian Short Clawed Otter! Get a sneaky peek into his den through a private viewing glass and watch him play in the specially designed river enclosure, complete with running stream & diving pool.
Otters are very well adapted to both life on land and in water
They have 2 layers of fur which acts like a wetsuit. The first layer is designed to repel water away from the Otters body and a second, fluffier layer to help keep them warm.
