It was March 03 2021 when Billy Mail and his wife Susan noticed an emaciated otter cracking crabs on the pier near their house in Shetland, an archipelago in Scotland.
“I was looking out at this lovely flat calm day when I first noticed her,” Billy told me, “She was taking crabs out of the water and eating them on the pontoon. Curiosity got the better of me and I wondered how close I could get to this wild otter, because that’s just who I am.”
