I'm pretty sure that's not an otter.

This comment is really funny as someone here after the edit to fix the mistake

I have to say that this typo brought me much joy this morning.

LMAO, yes, you are absolutely right. I have not had my coffee this morning. I almost want to leave it, but I don't want to confuse people. I love how I posted it in the right community but fucked up the title.

You meant to write one animal, but you wrote the otter

Guilty as charged, I'll beaver first to admit it.

I want to give it a kiss. I wonder if they are soft or kind of wirey

Now I wanna touch one too. Here's what I found:

Beaver fur is a soft luxurious coat that keeps the animal comfortable in all temperatures, on land, and in water. Their fur has two layers. The outer layer consists of coarse, long, glossy guard hairs. The under fur consists of dense, short, fine hairs that together with an oily material provide the waterproof barrier that keeps the beaver’s skin dry in the water.

I just found out that beavers can be tamed but are not domesticated. So I'm guessing they're safe to pet but will poop on your carpet...

Stay subscribed to this community, and I'll try my best to give you so many beaver facts, you'll be begging me to stop with all the beavers.
