5th December 2007 - Staff at The Scottish Sea Life Sanctuary have been deeply saddened by the loss of their female North American Otter Sula. |
 |
Opened in 2002, a spacious and spectacular Otter sanctuary with underwater viewing, allowing you to witness their graceful swimming up close. Fingal and Sula, the Sanctuary’s new residents, refugees from an overcrowded colony at an Essex wildlife park, will help raise awareness of conservation efforts on behalf of those native otters.
The new facility with its own holt, deep diving pool, streams and shallower pools has plenty to keep the two Otters occupied. Read the latest news about our Otter in the Otter Update section. Latest news update March/April 2008. |
| Their arrival is part of a national Sea Life campaign to raise awareness of conservation needs and endeavours relating to our native European Otters......happily now making a strong comeback after decades of decline. | 
|
| Spotted!!! - There has been many spottings of a wild otter over the past few weeks by the members of staff, while having our daily morning meeting there has been a sighting of an otter twice in three days! We assume that it is the same otter as it is frequenting the same area and hopefully it will keep returning for both staff and visitors to enjoy. |
