Amongst the most popular and endearing of Britain’s wild creatures, otters inhabit not only the full length of the British and Irish coasts but also many river systems and lochs. Formerly hunted almost to extinction, they are one of conservation’s great success stories. In this essential book, Andy Howard opens their lives to us with a perfect combination of words and images: how they hunt, the beauty of their movement, the terrible violence over genetic inheritance, and how they raise their young.
Andy Howard is one of Britain’s leading wildlife photographers, specialising in the animals and birds of the mountains and coast. For many years, both his work and his preferences have taken him to the most remote areas of Cairngorms National Park. His first book, The Secret Life of the Mountain Hare, published in 2018, was an immediate success, his second The Secret Life of the Cairngorms was an instant hit and sold out with months of publication. He contributes to many periodicals and websites, as well as television programmes such as The One Show, Countryfile and Landward. He lives near Inverness with his wife, Lyndsey.
‘In this glittering collection of intimate portraits, Andy Howard brings us closer to the lives of wild otters than any casual observer could ever hope for. His dedication to the task appears to have achieved the impossible, to enter the waves and the kelp so unobtrusively that he seems to have become an otter himself.’

‘This is a cracker of a book with some stunning photos. It really is the next best thing to seeing these wonderful animals in the wild.’
