(毛鼻水獺)
毛鼻水獺的特点之一是它们喜欢夜间活动,通常在夜幕降临后出动狩猎。它们的栖息地多为内陆溪流的沼泽森林或者沿海地区,狩猎时常单独行动,也有时会组成2到4只的群体一起合作捕猎。它们的食物以鱼类、螃蟹、水禽、水蛇、青蛙、甚至小型哺乳动物为主。
然而,毛鼻水獺目前面临着严峻的生存挑战。非法盗猎者为获取其珍贵的毛皮而捕杀它们,同时栖息地的破坏也使得这种物种的生存变得更加艰难。保护毛鼻水獺和它们的栖息环境,成为了全球生物多样性保护的重要议题之一。
(Hairy-Nosed Otter)
😊😍Wow, that's so lucky! A family of smooth-coated otters going out at night must be a fascinating sight. Were they playing by the riverbank or diving to catch fish?
Hairy-Nosed Otter, also known as the Sunda Otter, is a species found in Southeast Asia, inhabiting freshwater environments. It is listed as a vulnerable species by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). In the 1990s, it was believed to be extinct, but later sightings were made in Cambodia, Thailand, Borneo, Vietnam, and Malaysia.
One of the notable behaviors of the Hairy-Nosed Otter is its preference for nocturnal activity. It typically hunts at night and often hunts alone, though sometimes small groups of 2 to 4 individuals work together. Their diet consists mainly of fish, crabs, waterfowl, water snakes, frogs, and even small mammals.
However, the Hairy-Nosed Otter faces significant survival threats. Poaching for its valuable fur and the destruction of its habitat have both contributed to its endangered status. Protecting this species and its natural habitats is a critical global biodiversity conservation issue.
