These otters stay cool in a heatwave as they play in ice at Oregon Zoo

Sea otters at Oregon Zoo in the United States have been enjoying a novel way to cool down as they play around in ice buckets.

The zoo filmed its otters playing, swimming, and munching on ice to keep cool as temperatures soared this week.

Posting the video on Facebook, Oregon Zoo said: “Better set your AC to ottermatic today.”
