Abstract
Information on new finds of the Eurasian otter (Lutra lutra) in the territory of Buzkyi Gard National Park is given. Some data are also given on the specifics of the otter’s diet, including its preying on animal species that are included into protection lists. The case of late (autumn) reproduction of otters is noted and described. The state of the otter population within the national park and the probable threats for this species related to the decrease of the river water content were assessed. The high level of rarity in the national park’s fauna and its concentration in small areas have been confirmed.
