# The Otter by James Williams (Hardcover)

"Back from the brink of extinction, the otter is making a come-back in Britain today. Author James Williams, a life-long enthusiast of this fascinating, enigmatic creature, dispells some the mysteries in this beautifully-illustrated book:  
  
\* Reasons for the near-disappearance of the otter in the 1980s and the reasons for its recovery today  
\* Why otters patrol their territories and fight for them  
\* Breeding, natural history and behaviour  
\* Unusual otter information: blind otters, the work of otter groups, the difficulties of introducing otters in the wild, their surprising ability to live close to man  
\* Otters as predators -- their impact on fish stocks, the difficulty of fish-hunting in cold water, their favourite foods  
\* Tracking otters through their prints, and through their spraints  
\* Helping the otter to survive in the 21st century"
