>>5025177they look like a very physically toned, and extra deviously cunning version of smaller Tree otters that run around my neighborhood.I swear there's like 50 of them that live in this one tree in my neighbor's backyard.
>>5025177Their face and chest fur become silvery with age so they look elegant when grooming themselves. Look how she even does her paws as the end:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_HnRzZYNcdE

>>5025177Better trained than many domesticated animals:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4_IJv2zuvQ
>>5025177https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JhmN6jxtHjcAn abalone can be pretty hard to pry off a rock. Just ask a sea otter! But if there’s a handy stone nearby? Good luck abalone!
>>5025177>yes good good... uh...... stop turn-ACKThanks OP, laughed like a retard
>>5026155I love videos of them using their tools:https://www.jonandersonphoto.com/Blog/Otter-rock-hammer

>>5025177These shell hats are so stylish.
>>5027377Aww, it sort of looks like an onion on her head.
>>5026326Hehe
>>5026326/an/ needs more sea otter webms
>>5025177
>>5027377Cute!
>>5026583Agreed, they and their relatives are savages and mercilessly hunt crocodiles, snapping turtles and snakes despite looking like water puppies.
>>5028879Those are giant otters (Pteronura brasiliensis) and they look very different:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFwCcIzeJD8This thread is about sea others (Enhydra lutris)
>>5028863Looks like the Lorax
>>5028863Longter is long
>>5028890Be nice
>>5025177sea otter kills seagull that flies into its enclosurehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ntwItCltU4s
>>5028879>mercilessly hunt crocodiles, snapping turtles and snakesYou're thinking of the otters that don't look cute.
>>5031885Based otter
>>5025177BEHOLD: A MAN!
>>5031885The gull was probably trying to steal its food
>crazy feminist cunt hasn't showed up ranting about how otters and seals are rapists yetsurprising
>>5034236I always find it so retarded when we as humans judge animals based on human morality. Like animals are more worthy of admiration if they coincidentally adhere more closely to our type of behavior. Nature doesn't have morality it is simply the way it is and to say some creatures are less worthy of reverence based on something we have developed due to the luxury of civilization is incredibly ignorant.
>>5026326Haha
>>5031885The gull started it
>>5025177Imagine not loving them
>>5027377Nice hat!
>>5025833Those widdle paws
>>5025177Post the clip of the otters cleaning up the traffic cones

>>5025177sea otters are the chimpanzee equivalent for amphibious mammals
>>5039741They're actually most similar to orangutans in their social structure and personalities/behavior
>>5025833dawww, give her a hug
>>5040361I love the fuzzy little flippers they have when they're pups
i like when they stand up they look funee
>>5031885
>>5041551>British pensioner kills seagull that steals his chips. Media outrage.>British Abdul turns a child into literal kebabs. Media silence.
>>5034469>I always find it so retarded when we as humans judge animals based on human morality.That in itself is a "retarded" thing to say since animals definitely do judge humans based on their own morality.For example the Female leopard seal repeatedly trying to feed a male diver -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UmVWGvO8YhkAnd the Leopard seal that drowned a woman because it could.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leopard_seal#Death_of_Kirsty_Brown>Like animals are more worthy of admiration if they coincidentally adhere more closely to our type of behavior.That's exactly how non-human think though...>Nature doesn't have moralitycompletely and utterly wrong.Humans deemed to be more attractive by humans are also judged to be more attractive by other mammals. Even something as distantly related to us as chickens show a preference for more attractive humans.https://sci-hub.se/https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s12110-002-1021-6Human men are more likely to kill the offspring of other men than their own and human women are more likely to kill their own offspring than the offspring of other women.You see this exact same pattern of behavior in Horses, Bears, Cetaceans etc.The similarities disappear very quickly outside of mammals.>and to say some creatures are less worthy of reverence based on something we have developed due to the luxury of civilization is incredibly ignorant.Civilization isn't a luxury. Humans worked our asses off to create it out of nothing. We deserve it.Also it isn't abnormal. It's what we are. No different from a bird nest being a product of what birds are.Anon. Go outside and leave your furry reddit autism at the front door please.And of course the /an/ moderation hasn't changed in the slightest over the last five years.No wonder /an/ is completely fucking dead.The only thing you can safely do is post pictures of animals being cute. God forbid anyone uses their fucking brains. Even just once. Instant warning.
>>5041755>That in itself is a "retarded" thing to say since animals definitely do judge humans based on their own morality.>For example the Female leopard seal repeatedly trying to feed a male diver -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UmVWGvO8Yhk [Embed]>And the Leopard seal that drowned a woman because it could.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leopard_seal#Death_of_Kirsty_BrownI honestly don't know what the point you're trying to make here is. Kristy Brown was killed while snorkeling, so the leopard seal probably couldn't even tell she was a woman and may have even mistaken her for a smaller seal.
>>5025177"If they have the luck to escape, they begin, as soon as they are in the water, to mock their pursuers in such a manner that one cannot look on without particular pleasure. Now they stand upright in the water like a man and jump up and down with the waves and sometimes hold the forefoot above the eyes as if they wanted to scrutinize you closely in the sun; now they throw themselves on their backs and rub their bellies and pudenda as do monkeys; then they toss the young ones in the air and catch them again, etc.Altogether a beautiful and pleasing animal, cunning and amusing in its habits, and at the same time ingratiating and amorous. They prefer to lie together in families, the male with its mate, the half-grown young and the very young sucklings all together. . . . Their love for their young is so intense that they expose themselves to the most manifest danger of death. When taken away from them, they cry bitterly, like a small child, and grieve so much that, as we have observed from rather authentic cases, after ten to fourteen days they grow as lean as a skeleton, become sick and feeble, and will not leave the shore."-Georg Steller
