River Otters Pine Knoll Shores Aquarium
Staff Welcomed Two Otter Brothers, Pee Dee and Rocky a few years ago.
Pine Knoll Shores, N.C. — Two new North American river otters, Pee Dee and Rocky, will add additional adorable antics to the North American River Otter habitat at the North Carolina Aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores.
The two, 9-month-old otters, both male, come from a litter of otter pups born at Milwaukee County Zoo in Milwaukee, WI as part of the Association of Zoos & Aquariums (AZA) Species Survival Plan®(SSP) Program. Their mother and a sister are both still at Milwaukee County Zoo.
Both Pee Dee and Rocky are named after North Carolina rivers and will share a space with the Aquarium’s current otters, Eno the oldest otter (17y.o.)

ReplyDeleteOtters are just so full of character! Loved this post - and the Madi flashback! YAM xx
Otters are fun to watch.
ReplyDeleteLove the Madi flashback. Excellent instruction for claiming a box.
I love otters. They used to come up the stream from the river and then into our neighbour's fish ponds. He doesn't love them as he now has no fish left, and they no longer come visiting.
ReplyDeleteThe otters are so cute and that box is a perfect fit for you, Madi!
