By Jacob

       River otters are very interesting animals.  Did you know that river otters eat mainly fish? River otters grow seven feet tall. His enemies are big cats and lynx. River otters have webbed feet to swim fast. When they talk it sounds like a cough. It lives in the marshes, rivers, and lakes of North and South America. They sleep during the day. They have thick brown fur and short legs. It likes to swim a lot. It has a streamlined shape. Its webbed feet are black with furred soles. He is with the weasel family. I think river otters are awesome.
