One way or anotter!

No one really knows why otters juggle pebbles, but one thing is for sure: whether they are tossing pebbles from one paw to another or rolling them up and down their arms and across their chests, otters are without doubt expert pebble jugglers.

Scientists have been looking for an explanation for some time now and have come up with a number of theories, but nothing conclusive.

Could it be that the otters are just relaxing and having fun?

What do you think?

  1. Nessuno sa davvero perché le lontre giochino con i ciottoli , ma una cosa è certa: sia che stiano lanciando sassolini da una zampa all’altra o che li facciano rotolare su e giù per le braccia e sul petto , le lontre sono senza dubbio esperti giocolieri di ciottoli.

    Gli scienziati sono alla ricerca di una spiegazione da tempo e hanno escogitato una serie di teorie, ma nessuna conclusiva.

    Potrebbe essere che le lontre si stiano solo rilassando e divertendo?
