Dead otter found in Northamptonshire to be sent to Cardiff for post-mortem

A dead otter found near a Northamptonshire village is to be sent to Cardiff to try and establish how it died.

The animal was found in the Stanwick area last week, as reported by the Northants Telegraph.

Northants Police’s Rural Crime Team said at the time that they don’t often get reports of dead otters, but that this was the fourth one that has been found in a short space of time.
