Otter cubs
It's a well known fact that almost any living creature in the world is cute when it is a puppy and these two otter cubs are not an exception. Indeed.
The two Asian small-clawed river otter pups were born on February 7th at San Diego SeaWorld to first-time parents Leo and Giselle.
The Asian small-clawed otter is the smallest of the 13 otter species. They mate for life and will stay in small family groups of up to 15. Typical litter size is two to six pups. Gestation is about 62 days, and pups are born small and helpless with their eyes closed. Maturity is reached in two to three years.
