OTTER FAMILY FIGHT

Splashing around in the water, a mother otter and her son are tangled in a family feud. The otters bite, strangle and push each other under water as they try to stay afloat. This scrap was captured by photographer Sue Edwards, 51, when she caught the mother and son play fighting with each other at the British Wildlife Centre, Lingfield. ‘These two European Otters were play fighting with each other in open water,’ says Sue, of Surrey.
