00:00 They are smart,

00:02 fearsome,

00:05 and irresistibly cute.

00:08 Are these Mastelids overpowered?

00:11 And how different are they?

00:13 You will find out in the 24th episode of YouTube's favorite show, Animal Battle.

00:19 Ladies and gentlemen, it is my honor to present to you our two competitors.

00:25 The Sea Otter

00:28 versus

00:30 the Giant Otter.

00:32 Also, stick until the end of the video because you will vote the winner of this battle,

00:36 and you will also find out who is the winner of the previous Animal Battle

00:40 between the Great White Shark and the Saltwater Crocodile.

00:43 Let's do it!

00:45 I am Maro, and this is Animal Battle.

00:54 So how exactly are we going to find out which otter species is better?

00:58 As always, we are going to compare the two based on the six sacred characteristics

01:03 Agility, Attack, Defense, Intelligence, Bone Skill, and Survival.

01:11 So being more powerful doesn't necessarily make one a better animal.

01:15 Before going to their stats, we need to be able to differentiate the two otter species.

01:20 Giant otters live in the rivers of South America and have very short fur,

01:25 while Sea Otters are found in the Pacific Ocean, have longer fur, and lighter-colored heads.

01:30 Of course, they have a lot more differences like locomotion, social structure, and hunting preferences,

01:36 but we will talk about those when we will look over their stats.

01:40 That being said, let's start with Agility.

01:43 While most mustelids like wolverines, honey badgers, and weasels

01:47 decided to live alongside larger and more powerful carnivores,

01:51 otters specialized in living in the water, where they would have fewer competitors

01:55 and would have the chance to become apex predators.

01:58 For swimming, they have webbed feet and powerful tails.

02:02 Sea otters can reach speeds of up to 9 km/h in water, which is quite decent,

02:07 while giant otters are even faster, reaching speeds of up to 14.4 km/h in water.

02:14 Giant otters are also adapted to running on land, reaching an impressive speed of 47 km/h.

02:20 Sea otters are quite clumsy on land and move slowly,

02:23 but that is because they are better adapted to spending the majority of their life in water.

02:28 You can usually see them floating on their backs because they are very buoyant

02:32 due to their large lung capacity and the air trapped in their fur.

02:35 Even sea otter pups can naturally float, but most of the time mothers carry them on their bellies.

02:41 That is objectively cute. We need a cutometer.

02:44 Also, sea otters can hold their breath for up to 5 minutes underwater,

02:48 and giant otters can dive for 6 to 8 minutes.

02:52 Let's see their stats.

02:53 They have fairly high agility stats, giant otters being slightly better here

03:02 because they can reach higher speeds both in water and on land.

03:05 Moving on to bone skills, and these otters have pretty high bone skill stats.

03:10 Both the sea otter and the giant otter have highly sensitive whiskers

03:14 which can track the changes in water pressure and currents.

03:17 Also, they can close their nose and ears when they dive.

03:21 Giant otters have a cute hearing, an excellent sense of smell, and good vision above water,

03:26 but it is not that good in the water.

03:28 They have short and dense fur which is also water-repellent.

03:32 Sea otters have mediocre sight and rely more on their excellent sense of smell.

03:37 Unlike other marine mammals, they don't have a layer of blubber to keep their bodies warm,

03:42 but have thick and dense fur.

03:44 In fact, it is the densest fur in the animal kingdom,

03:48 and it repels the water so well that their skin is dry.

03:52 That is why sea otters need to take care of their fur,

03:55 and they often need to groom it and blow air into it.

03:58 And it looks really cute.

04:00 Furthermore, sea otters have a loose pouch of skin under their forearms,

04:04 and use it to store food which they bring to the surface,

04:07 and they also keep their favorite rock in there.

04:10 What do they have a rock for? You will find out later.

04:13 All of these bonuses are already great,

04:16 but perhaps the biggest bonus skill of otters is their social structure.

04:20 Giant otters are highly social, living in large family groups with 2 to 20 members.

04:26 These groups have a dominant breeding pair, and their members share different roles.

04:31 It is an important bonus skill because living in groups,

04:34 giant otters are more powerful against predators and have a higher chance of survival.

04:39 Sea otters are not the social foe, being able to live and forage independently.

04:44 Still, when they rest, they can hold hands with other sea otters to prevent drifting,

04:49 which looks so damn cute.

04:52 In this way, they can form single-sex groups called rafts.

04:55 These rafts can consist of 10 to 100 sea otters,

04:59 and the largest one ever seen contained over 2000 hand-holding otters.

05:05 I guess the cutometer is broken at this point, but we shall see their bonus skill stats.

05:10 They have really high bonus skill stats, giant otters being slightly better here

05:19 because they form complex family groups, which is a great deal for their attack and defense stats.

05:24 But before we talk about attack and defense, we still need to look at their intelligence.

05:29 They are really smart, and not just because they are predators.

05:33 Giant otters can be trained and learn tricks easily.

05:36 They are not only motivated by the food reward, but also by being praised.

05:41 Sea otters are surprisingly intelligent.

05:44 They can play basketball, know how to stack cups,

05:47 and are some of the few animals to use tools in the wild.

05:51 Remember that rock that they keep in their pouches?

05:54 Well, sea otters use it as a hammer to crack open animals with hard shells.

05:59 They can also use larger stones as anvils, putting them on their bellies.

06:04 They also use kelp to prevent drifting while sleeping,

06:07 or to keep their pups still while mothers go in search for food.

06:11 Moreover, they can trap crabs in kelp to keep looking for more food.

06:15 So their intelligence stats are…

06:17 Really high.

06:22 Sea otters are slightly better here due to their rare ability to use tools.

06:27 It is time to go to their attack and defense stats.

06:30 Sea otters are actually the largest otter species,

06:33 males reaching lengths of up to 1.5 meters and weighing up to 45 kilograms.

06:39 Giant otters are not as heavy, but are longer than sea otters,

06:42 males reaching up to 1.7 meters in length and weighing up to 32 kilograms.

06:48 That makes them the longest mastelid species.

06:51 One characteristic that they have in common with other mastelids

06:54 like weasels, honey badgers, and wolverines is how fearsome they are.

06:59 Giant otters are apex predators, feeding almost exclusively on fish,

07:03 but may also eat crabs, turtles, snakes like anacondas, and small caimans.

07:09 They hunt fish individually, but when the prey is larger,

07:12 the group will hunt together using their numbers as an advantage.

07:16 They have sharp claws and are very territorial.

07:19 Giant otters have a high metabolic rate and need to eat a lot every day.

07:24 But sea otters have an even higher metabolic rate

07:27 because they need to stay warm in the cold ocean waters.

07:30 That is why they need to eat more than a quarter of their own body weight in food daily.

07:36 They usually forage for food being the only marine animals capable of lifting and turning over rocks.

07:42 That is how they find sea urchins, clams and mussels, other species of molluscs and crustaceans.

07:49 They can eat anything from crabs to giant octopuses

07:52 and use their front paws with retractable claws to catch fish.

07:56 After they collect food in their pouches,

07:58 they go to the surface and use their favorite rocks to open clams and mussels.

08:03 What about predators?

08:04 Well, sea otters are not that safe in the ocean

08:07 because there are a lot of large predators like orcas, sea lions and great white sharks.

08:13 They can also be killed by bears or coyotes on land, and their pups might be killed by eagles.

08:18 Giant otters live in a more favorable habitat.

08:21 There are fewer large predators in rivers,

08:24 and even though caimans, cougars, jaguars and anacondas might kill solitary otters sometimes,

08:29 living in groups they become the stronger predators.

08:33 A group of giant otters might overpower a caiman or anaconda and can scare off jaguars.

08:38 Let's see their stats.

08:40 They have very high attack stats for their size.

08:47 Giant otters are better at defense because they have fewer predators

08:51 and can overpower larger animals in groups.

08:54 And lastly, let's talk about their survival stats,

08:56 because there's no sense in having high stats if a species is going extinct.

09:01 Both of these otter species are classified as endangered species,

09:05 but there is a big difference in their population number.

09:08 While there are about 107,000 sea otters in the wild,

09:12 the estimated number of giant otters is below 5,000 individuals.

09:17 Sea otters will usually have only one pup,

09:19 which will have a life expectancy of up to 23 years in the wild and up to 29 in captivity.

09:25 And giant otters can have 1 to 5 pups, which are going to have a lifespan of up to 8 years in the wild and 17 in captivity.

09:33 Sadly, people hunt these amazing animals for their fur, and their population is still decreasing.

09:39 That being said, let's see their final stats.

09:42 They have high agility, attack, bonus skill, and intelligence stats

09:50 and have a real chance of competing for the title "the best animal in the world".

09:54 But only one of them can compete further, and that is the winner of this battle.
