River Otter Close-Up Photo - Playful & Expressive Wildlife Portrait #1748887 (License: Personal Use)

A wet river otter stands upright behind a transparent barrier, its dark eyes wide and mouth slightly open, revealing small sharp teeth. Its dense, water-slicked fur ranges from silvery-gray to deep brown, with prominent white whiskers fanning outward. The blurred green background suggests a lush, grassy habitat, likely within a zoo or wildlife rehabilitation center.
