Embiara Lodge had thumbs up from the local Giant Otter community

It all started in January this year when we received the visit of a Giant otter scout party who seemed to be checking out our stretch of the Rio Negro to determine if it was a suitable neighbourhood tohouse the family, bring up the pups, safety aspects and more importantly the food supply well as the months progressed we concluded that we received the finned thumbs up. We have never seen so many Giant Otter families as this year. Just on our stretch of river we located 3 burrows where fmilies hat settled. One morning in May coming down the river in a Kayak we counted 22 giant otters quite an experience. here are some pictures of these encounters. The first picture shows the advance scout party in our oximore in front of our port

and next is one of the burrows with loads of activities
