The IUCN OSG Bulletin is the scientific journal of the IUCN/SSC Otter Specialist Group.
We publish peer-reviewed manuscripts containing information from original research that contributes to understanding of any aspect of the biology of the 13 otter species. Topics include investigations into physiology, ecology, conservation, status, diet, behaviour and can cover observations from the wild or animals in captivity.
