Some more wallpaper sweetness - Otter kids in Hagenbeck Zoo - Asian small-clawed otters (Aonyx cinereus)

Hi guys and gals,

in continuation of my "sleeping animals" series here are two more cuties
doing what they do best :-) These, by the way, are Oriental small-clawed
otters - before I looked them up in the ISIS database, I didn't even
know that this species of animals existed :-)

Greetings from Germany -

Ralf
