We are thrilled to announce a delightful new addition to the Johnsons of Old Hurst Zoo family—otters! These playful and charismatic creatures are sure to captivate visitors of all ages with their energetic antics and charming personalities. Here’s everything you need to know about our newest residents.


Meet Our Otters

Otters are known for their intelligence, agility, and social behaviour. Our otters have already started to settle into their new home, and it’s a joy to watch them explore, swim, and play. With their sleek bodies and webbed feet, otters are natural swimmers, capable of gliding effortlessly through the water. They are equally adept on land, where they display an impressive range of behaviours from foraging to grooming.


Why Otters?

At Johnsons of Old Hurst Zoo, we are dedicated to providing our visitors with unique and educational wildlife experiences. Otters, with their fascinating behaviours and ecological importance, are a perfect fit for our mission. They serve as excellent ambassadors for freshwater ecosystems, helping us educate the public about the importance of preserving these vital habitats.


A Day in the Life of an Otter

One of the most enchanting aspects of otters is their playful nature. Visitors can expect to see our otters engaging in a variety of activities, from diving and swimming to using tools to open shellfish. They are highly social animals, often seen playing together, which is not only entertaining but also essential for their development and well-being.


Conservation and Education

Our otters’ arrival also highlights our ongoing commitment to conservation and education. Otters are indicators of healthy aquatic environments, and their presence can help us raise awareness about water conservation and pollution. By observing and learning about otters, visitors can gain a deeper appreciation for the delicate balance of our natural world and the steps we can all take to protect it.

Moments like watching animals play can be surprisingly relaxing and fun for families. After a day exploring attractions like this, some people also enjoy unwinding with light entertainment at home—maybe even a quick round of smash karts unblocked, a fast-paced browser game that’s perfect for a short break while reminiscing about the day’s adventures.
