Otters Otter Contest in San Francisco

[LavenderLounge]

I shot 200 pictures at a beauty contest for otters over the weekend. You can see the whole set in the VIP Room at Lavender Lounge.

Interesting facts about otters:
-Unlike other marine mammals, the sea otter has no blubber and relies on its exceptionally thick fur to keep warm... It must eat an estimated 25 to 38% of its own body weight in food each day in order to burn the calories necessary to counteract the loss of heat due to the cold water environment. (At that rate, after a few years they turn into bears.)
-Although each adult and independent juvenile forages alone, sea otters tend to rest together in single-sex groups called rafts. A raft typically contains 10 to 100 animals, with male rafts being larger than female ones. (Sounds like a gay parade on water!)

SOme look more like cubs to me, but whatever.

Actually, the guy on the right was the winner, and a lot of my friends grumbled that he was more cub than otter. But you know how these drunken contests go. The crowd cheered him more because he was the most animated.

That's because I wasn't there

The guy on the far right looks very similar to my straight roomate who walks around without a shirt most of the time. I would say he is cute, but I have known him since WAY before I came out, so I can't think about him like that...

He looks like someone I know..

Don't know his name, but here is a better picture.
