Baby otters at SeaWorld Orlando By Robert Niles
TPI daughter Natalie insisted that I post this:Published: March 30, 2009 at 3:04 PM  From SeaWorld Orlando's press release today: SeaWorld animal trainers in Orlando have their hands full with four baby Asian small-clawed otters. Born just three weeks ago to parents Simon and Sophie, the pups are nursing and will open their eyes in about a week. Asian small-clawed otters live in the rivers, creeks, estuaries and coastal waters of Southeast Asia, from northern India to southeastern China, the Malay Peninsula and parts of Indonesia. FWIW, Natalie has volunteered to become official TPI correspondent for all cute animal photos. Me? I'm wondering how I can turn this pic into an LOLCats. (I'm such a bad dad!)

I think that is about the cutest picture EVER!!!! AWWWW!!!!!! From Audra Distler on March 30, 2009 at 5:01 PM
I say you caption it with something "otterly" ridiculous! Tiems foor! ;) From Brian Emery on March 30, 2009 at 5:09 PM
My daughter said they are cutest babies ever!!! From Joshua Counsil on March 30, 2009 at 5:34 PM
I iz on your theme park blog detracting from the tournament. Seriously - great pic, though your daughter is only covering "all cute animal photos"? I will not accept this pro-cute agenda. Great Whites need coverage, too. From Amanda Jenkins on March 30, 2009 at 6:59 PM
I'm proud of you Robert. You are doing what any good father does, which is what your children like to do. My husband (though he hates bugs) will watch the shows and look up facts for our son who loves to learn about them. From Robert Niles on March 30, 2009 at 9:26 PM
Actually, I think the otters are cute, too, but I just feel compelled to honor the TPI spirit by cutting the cuteness with a splash of snark. BTW, Natalie's printed out the picture and tacked it to her bedroom wall. Brace yourself for more cute animal photos in the future.... From 204.187.150.30 on March 31, 2009 at 8:01 AM
I think I'd have kids if they looked like that! From Melissa Faulkner on March 31, 2009 at 8:19 AM
