It could be worse. Think of a 440 lb. Opossum

That would make a dandy sleeping bag!

Not sure which would be worse to skin, the giant otter or giant beaver. At least the giant otter tails would be easier to flesh because as we learned from Young Frankenstein, its easier to work on things that are bigger.

You'd get a pretty penny for that otter!

As they are now they are crazy mean, fast, and dangerous. Cannot imagine one of that size!

I saw some otters in the Amazon that were pretty big. Wikipedia says average weight for giant south american otters is 75 lbs.... the pelts looked like ironing boards but length of fur was abut 1/4"

Thats why we have the cities treaties on cats and otter. Stupid customs folks weren’t smart enough to tell the difference between “look alike” species!
