THE FUSE

Otters are fascinating intelligent, emotional, and sentient beings. I’ve had the pleasure of watching them romp around and hang out with their friends. Most people will never see them in the wild and in her insightful and scientifically rigorous new book Romp: A Journey Through the Natural History of Otters and Why They Matter filled with facts and heartwarming stories, otter expert Dr. Heide Island explains how they play, socialize, hunt, survive, and thrive.
