IUCN/SCC Otter Specialist Group Bulletin Volume 17 Issue 1 Pages 1 - 58 (April 2000) Virtual Otters THE COMMANDER ISLANDS AND B.C. NATURE PROTECTION AND CONSERVATION ASSOCIATION We just finished this amazing SITE! Please, have a look and
enjoy it. OTTERNET.COM I thought it would be helpful to give a brief update on Otternet.com. Our site was created to educate people around the world on otters, and link to key other sites such as IOSF (International Otter Survival Fund), FSO (Friends of the Sea Otter) and ROA (River Otter Alliance). We began about 20 months ago and have grown to over 60 web pages accessed by about 200 people a day (about 70,000 per year). Most visitors appear to be children doing a report on otters or angry/curious hosts who have seen a local otter (some wanting wisdom on how to get rid of otters eating "their" fish from "their" pond). If you looked around our site you would see facts from the IUCN 1990 Otter Action Plan, galleries of photos, movies, sounds and several otter games such as otter pong, otter mad libs, otter tile game and "test your otter knowledge" interactive tools. We also have a bulletin board where people can post otter questions. Visitors would especially appreciate feedback from this illustrious group should you have time to visit it and answer a few questions every once in a while. If anyone has suggestions to improve the site, or additional content we should post, please let me know. Thank you ! Bob Fetterman OTTERCAM Just wanted to let you know about the new "Ottercam" feature at nationalgeographic.com that lets visitors take an inside look at the lives of two river otters as they frolic about the pools and slide of their adoptive home. Please see the media advisory below for more information on this unique feature and feel free to add a link. Thanks for your time, Mark Nardelli |
