Hungry sea otter tucks into crunchy crab on the beach

A hungry sea otter was spotted tucking into a crunchy crab on a beach in Scotland.

Jane Sayliss, who captured the impressive footage, explained how “fantastic” it was to witness the usually “private” animal in its natural habitat.

“I spotted what I thought was a seal nearby. It turned out to be a sea otter with a large crab in its mouth and it came onto the rock right in front of me,” she said.

“It proceeded to crunch away at the crab. It was a fantastic experience to witness such elusive and private animals in their natural environment.”
