Volunteers create new home for otters on local stretch of River Roding

Volunteers have been working to help otters thrive in a local stretch of the River Roding.

“We created a spacious otter holt for the Roding’s most recent new residents. We used big logs to create an entry chamber and a nesting chamber, and covered the whole thing in branches and earth,” said a spokesperson for the River Roding Trust’s Wanstead and Woodford local group.

The volunteers also created two hibernacula for amphibians and other small creatures to use.
