Due to significant flooding and impassable roads in our region from Tropical Storm Helene, the WNC Nature Center is temporarily CLOSED.

All of our animals are safe and accounted for, and there is minimal damage to the habitats. However, Swannanoa River Road and the main bridge to the Nature Center were washed away, and it will take time to reopen. We will undoubtedly need your support as we rebuild.

Description

From their webbed feet, to their rudder-like tails, and their extra eyelids that act as goggles, river otters are masterful in the water. They love to eat fish and crayfish, but also eat mollusks, crabs, amphibians, rodents, birds, eggs, and reptiles.
