Pet otter's first look at a herd of cows
Captain Aty's day begins with a fish and a swim. Before it's over, he'll meet his very first cows. more
Aty is a pet otter, and his owner takes him along on outings around Japan. This one is a visit to Hokkaido University. At breakfast he tips his head back with every bite of fish.
After his swim, it's off to the university, where the first thing on the list is a nap. Aty has a whole set of sleeping poses. He flops over onto his back, curls his little hands and snores softly.
After a snack, the two of them set out to explore. Out on the grass, Aty spots a small herd of cows. He has never seen animals like these before. His eyes go wide, and he keeps them locked on the cows as they move around.
SaveHe chitters with excitement as he watches, a quick string of squeaks that one fan compares to a Geiger counter. His owner can't get enough of the way he stares at them.
Aty doesn't seem to know what to make of these big new animals. After a little more exploring, he's ready for another nap. A day of cow watching turns out to be hard work for an otter.
