EXERCISING OTTERS

A group of otters put on a show of aqua aerobics, as they raise their flippers perfectly in sync. The sea otters, enjoying some synchronised exercise, were photographed by Veronica Craft. The 41-year-old Brazilian photographer spotted the animals performing their workout in the bay at Moss Landing, California. ‘The otters looked like they were having so much fun,’ says Veronica, now of Seaside, California.
