Giant otter pair

Auditioning as bookends perhaps.
Chester, 28th May 2011
Great shot. I really must try to get to see these sometime- still outstanding on my 'tick' list.
 
Excellent work Alan, it's so hard to get a good shot of just one of these guys, let alone both of them. Very impressive.
 
The male is the one without the markings! His name is Xingu and he was born at Dortmund Zoo. The female has the white markings. Her name is Icana and she came from Hamburg
 
are you sure because I was told it was the other way around last time I was at the zoo?

I think that Evilkittie has it right: you can see that Xingu (at the front) has the wider, more masculine, head shape.
I can't pronounce the female's name at all, so I propose that it be should changed to 'dot slash w' to match the markings on her throat :D
