There are people who really love the snow and look forward to it every year, and there are those who feel the complete opposite. But, if you’re an otter, seeing the snow is a whole different experience.
On November 26, the TikTok account for Topeka Zoo (@topekazoo) in Kansas shared a video of their otters, who had a really interesting reaction to the snowfall. Take a look!

In a 42-second video, we meet Albert, Bruce, and Crush, a group of three otters hanging out in their enclosure with the snow falling and piles of snow accumulating.

The cute otter makes it clear that they’re as happy as could be with all the new snow. We watch the otter run around using the snow as a slide to zoom into the water.
Basically, the cute otter makes snow look like it’s the best fun they’ve had in a really long time. The otter seems to love the feel of the snow and has no hesitation to rub their back along the cold piles, and it’s the cutest thing!
Adding to the charm of the video is the song “Let It Snow!” by Dean Martin, playing as the otter continues to look like they’re living their absolutely best life ever!
“The Otters say, LET IT SNOW!” the caption of the video reads.
It didn’t take long for the comment section to fill with people who were just as in love with the otter as the otter was with the snow.
“Just having the time of his life,” one commenter shared.
“I want to meet that cute little guy,” another wrote.
“I could sit and watch them swim all-day,” confessed another viewer.
“Awww, he clapped,” noticed another.
“OMG this made me so happy!” someone else shared. “I could just sit and watch otters play all day.”
According to the Topeka Zoo and Conservation Center, otters can live, on average, eight to 13 years and can weigh up to 30 pounds. The North American River Otter, like the one in the TikTok loving the snow, “can hold their breath for up to 8 minutes while underwater,” the zoo explains.
Looks like rain or snow; otters are easy to please!
