Postman Rescues an Otter

A postman found a baby otter on the Scottish roadside and takes her on a 350km tour in his mailbox. Oria, the otter cub was found the side of the road by Kenny Wilson near Stow. The Kenny stopped to scoop the otter up to keep her warm, then got the otter kitten milk and fed her through the tip of a ballpoint pen. He even took Oria on a rally before taking her to the animal rescue center. Mr. Wilson thought that she wasn't going to survive because she was very cold when he found her. "It looked as if she had either been abandoned or her mother had been hit by a car."he said. The reason he bought the kitten milk was because of the squeeking sound she made, which made him think that she is hungry. Oria eats nearly £15 of salmon every day. But the fishermans has stepped in to help. She is being very well cared at the rescue center.
