Otters – Otter mom teaching her pup how to swim

I came across this video and it just was so gorgeous I had to share it with you.

Who would have thought that otter pups had to learn how to swim. I imagined that it would have been instinctive for the little ones to go into the water and splash about but obviously not.

Love seeing how the mother looks after her baby and gets it to do what she wants it to, so that it becomes comfortable being in the water
