There are 13 varieties of otters with the North American river otter (Lutra canadensis) and the Eurasian otter (Lutra lutra) being the most common and recognizable freshwater species. The sea otter is the most well known marine otter of the North Pacific. The Eurasian Otter sometimes ventures into the coastal Atlantic, and the Sea Cat is found along the coast of Peru and Chile.
