Have You Ever Seen An Otter Poop?

Well, if you haven't, you are missing out on one of the greatest things ever. Once seen, it can never be unseen. I know that this seems like a strange notion, to be so fascinated by the excremental habits of a water rat creature, but if you have witnessed the phenomenon you know exactly what I'm talking about. I am convinced (keep in mind that I am no biologist) that otters have no means of natural, biological means of waste excretion. They can only poop with the aid of gravity and some good old fashioned shit shaking. It's crazy, they literally have to shake and dance the poop out of their bodies. For real. Wait, hold on. Lemme see if I can pull up some YouTubery so you can stop judging me and my otter crap obsession. Ok, here we go:



See what I'm talking about? Awesome, right? I DARE you to have a conversation about otters without bringing up how they poop. You won't be able to do it, guaranteed, because this factoid is now permanently burned into the trivia cortex of your brain.  Now stop what you are doing and do the otter poopy dance. It will change your life.

Side note: you can see the otter poopy dance in person at the Virginia Aquarium (I'm trying to get free admission with a shameless plug. Shhhhhhh.)
