THEY ‘OTTER’ BE IN PICTURES. A couple of playful otters perform on the banks of the Middle Raccoon River for several of the hundreds of spectators who were on hand Wednesday morning when 20 otters were released by the Iowa Conservation Commission near the boat launch at Springbrook State Park. School kids from Bayard, Guthrie Center, Panora-Linden and YJB were on hand to see the otters introduced to their new Iowa habitat. The Conservation Commission initially announced the otters would be released south of Panora. The otters were obtained from Kentucky, which buys them from Louisiana and then trades them to Iowa for wild turkeys. The otters are described as nomadic.
