You can put hats on 'em. Hope this helps

The otter can be very useful for gathering fish meat — it will harvest fish on demand. You can also use it to forage for Silica Pearls, and it will occasionally find Black Pearls.

I once had an otter that I named harry otter , he was a great otter he got me all the silica and black pearls I needed, he once saved me from a megalodon , he kept me warm to, he was a great companion I took him almost everywhere,but one day I was farming pearls with him I threw him at a fish to get pearls from it but instead he disappeared I looked and looked for him only to not find him but uneven got a message that he was dead, he's still out there somewhere, I still look for him to this day. #prayforharryotter

It increases your insulation. With fur armor and a otter. The winter mountain won't kill you anymore

Increasing melee damage increases the hypothermic and hyperthermic insulations on the carrier.

After being tamed, it will only eat fish (cooked or raw).

The islands jerboa,only it is an omivore,so cute I'll die soon and for some reason People seem to hav read over the fact it can get pearls and sometimes black pearls.

To have it bring you silica pearls you tell it to attack any fish. Double tap F while looking at a fish.

230 melee damage level 41. Otter gets 1-2 silica pearls per fish. After killing 4 fish the otter had 1 black pearl and 5 silica pearls

Can gather silica amd black pearls simultaneously. Sent mine to attach a fish, he got 1 silica pearl, 1 black pearl, and 4 fish meat.

Only dino i know that can hold 5 artifacts same or different in its inventory plus upping its melee helps alot with the temp. Makes it a great shoulder mount for caves.

Something most don't know.... glitched right now. Otter can hold more than one of the SAME artifact. Upvote so others know

If you live up north close to the snow biome it's recomended to keep one of these cuties on you at all times so that way you can resust the weather better! The higher the level the better :P

Their food and health stats are very low, only eats Fish meat and lots of it. Kill piranhas in the area before sending it into the water as they will shred your furry little friend faster than you can say
"But it was wearing an ascendant riot helmet ffs!"

Keep it away from piranha and salmon. Put a strong helmet to keep it safer. Also, it takes a lot more salmon than it says on dododex. Lvl 150 took about 20 salmon

Use the otter against Coel fish and it harvests black/silica pearls more frequent

Otter babies are very easy to raise, as they hold and entire 25 pounds of fish meat when first born. Not sure if this is an oversight, but just fill it with meat once, then refill a few more times before it hits juvenile. Can be hard to claim when first born because they tend to bounce all over the place. Overall very fun and easy to raise.

Excellent for warmth in the mountains! Raise the attack for better insulation

For gathering with the otter you don’t always have to pick him up and double tap F for him to gather and attack targets you can use the whistle command “attack this target” and it does the same thing but without having to pick him up and double tap F and he doesn’t have to be on your shoulders.
What I do is I throw him off my shoulders I go and kill the fish myself and once I got a good group of dead fish I just use whistle “attack this target” and he gathers the meat and pearls from the dead body. Hope this helps for anyone that was constantly picking the otter up and double tapping F to gather.

Harvests fish meat. Oh boy!
*throws otter at Meladon*
Go get em boy!
