Added a game camera to a castor mound set for beaver hoping to get a catch on video. Scoring an otter was just as good as I still had one tag to fill. I start out remaking the set after catching a small beaver. Got the catch along with some interesting otter behavior at the mound, a missed beav (because my trap was occupied) and then finally pulling up my catch.

Great video.
Now you know why it pays to set multiple traps at a location.

Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Ive always contended that folks often underestimate an otters nose. They knew what kind of cologne you were wearing when you set that trap. Very cool video...

Was that little dance the otter did on the top of the mound him marking with his scent?

I was hoping an Otter pro would chime in on this. I assume he was adding scent to my castor mound or maybe urine???

Nice. I’m kinda hoping for one of those on my beaver line, but no luck so far.


May God bless you and give you tight chains

That was outstanding!! Love those Browning cameras too. Is yours IR? Mine glows and it comes into play with some predators and others find it as an attraction and want to check it out.

I was wondering that myself. It did look like a marking the spot episode but would like to hear from the Otter Guys

Oustanding video!

Yes, the otter was leaving his scent when he did that little dance.

I'm gonna have to buy one of those Browning cameras!
