Did you know Otters hold hands while sleeping, so they don’t float away from each other? 🦦🦦🥺

Otters are some of the cutest animals on the planet. They’re also some of the most loveable, due in no small part to the fact that they often hold hands while sleeping so they don’t float away from each other.

It’s a gesture that’s not just limited to members of the same family, either. Groups of otters will often link hands while dozing, even if they’re not related.

So why do otters hold hands while sleeping?

There are a few theories. The first is that it’s a way of staying together. Otters are social creatures and they prefer to sleep in groups. By holding hands, they can make sure that no one gets lost or left behind.

Another theory is that it’s a way of keeping warm. Otters have very dense fur, but they don’t have a lot of body fat. This means that they can get cold easily, especially in water. By sleeping huddled together and holding hands, they can share their body heat and keep each other warm.

Whatever the reason, it’s clear that otters love to cuddle. And who can blame them? Holding hands is a sign of affection and it’s a way of showing that you care about someone.

So next time you see a group of otters sleeping, take a moment to appreciate their cuteness. And maybe even give them a little bit of space, so they can continue to hold hands in peace.
