Sako.243 1 Posted January 3, 2009 Report Share Posted January 3, 2009 (edited) I would say an Otter as they have 5 toes, As in the first pic but there could be a cat print there also, 4 toes. Edited January 3, 2009 by Sako.243 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers for that JD, .... yep, thinking about it big population of the striped ones in that part of the country, although i wasn't familiar with that bit of land. You're very lucky to be in amongst those Otters mate, somthing i aint seen........ yet, i know a couple of spots where, with a bit of luck, well you never just know...

labsnlurchers 39 Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 We see otters in aberystwyth harbour, meant to be one of the best places in wales to see them. We have even seen it in the sea, swimming on its back with an eel! But we have been to the harbour 100's of times and we have only ever seen him a handful of times Quote Link to post Share on other sites
