- Tracking River Otters With the Chesapeake Bay Otter Alliance
- Description
- River otters are native residents of Chesapeake Bay, but we know surprisingly little about them! Dr. Katrina Lohan, head of SERC's Coastal Disease Ecology Lab, explains how the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center is tracking their health. They're using motion cameras, analyzing droppings from their "poop parties," and asking citizen science to submit their sightings online!
