If I bought a house on a river, could I keep a river otter as an outside pet?

Question

If I bought a house on a river, do you think I could keep a river otter as an outside pet? I wouldn't chain her up.

Answer 1

How would you keep him in your section of the river?

Answer 2

Otters don't make good pets. They're wild animals and not easily domesticated.

Answer 3

I wouldn't. There is no way of keeping her or him in your part of the river. She would end up getting lost and would pass away because she wasnt used to wild life. I would say no. I think its illegal anyways.

Answer 4

lol that is a joke right it would be cute to have a river otter lol, Im sorry if it isnt that did make me smile though
