The second episode in our Wild Britain series focuses on otters. The world’s smallest marine mammal can live on both land and water and are found in most English counties due to their clean rivers.

One of the best and most reliable places to spot otters in mainland Britain is at the Devon Wildlife Trusts headquarters in the heart of Exeter, with prime viewing time at dawn.

Future episodes in this series will share some fun facts on animals such as beavers and red squirrels and where to find them, while last week’s episode focused on the best places to see puffins in the UK.
