Adorable Asian otter pups born at Edinburgh Zoo make first public appearance
02.02.2022 - 15:59 / dailyrecord.co.uk
A quartet of adorable Asian short-clawed otter pups have made their first public appearance at a top Scottish zoo.
The tiny Asian short-clawed otter were born on November 18 at Edinburgh Zoo after a successful coupling of parents Barry and Luna.
Staff at the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland (RZSS) say they have yet to be named but have received their first health checks.
Vets at the wildlife conservation charity confirmed that all four of the litter are girls.
Alison MacLean, carnivore team leader at Edinburgh Zoo, said: “We are delighted to welcome our newest editions, who are already proving to be very feisty, becoming more confident every day.
"They are now leaving their holts and exploring the enclosure with the rest of the family."
Parents Barry and Luna previously welcomed three pups in January 2021 named Garry, Eden and Clyde.
Alison added: “Barry and Luna have previously proved themselves to be very attentive parents and can often be seen with their older pups Garry, Eden and Clyde playing in their stream.
“With the addition of the four girls, we now have nine Asian small-clawed otters here at the zoo.
"The species live in family groups consisting of a mum and dad then their older offspring who help to raise the younger ones.”

Not Even Performing Shakespeare Can Bring Denzel Washington to BAFTA as the Actor is Snubbed (Again)
Clayton Davis After 49 films, eight Oscar nominations, with two wins for “Glory” (1989) and “Training Day” (2001), Denzel Washington seems to still not be good enough for the Brits, getting snubbed in leading actor by the BAFTA Awards for his work in “The Tragedy of Macbeth.”Despite over 270 accolades across his 45-year career in film, Washington has never received a BAFTA nomination, one of the more obvious omissions in BAFTA’s 75-year history. While many of his slights are either head-scratching or poorly-timed with late U.K.
