Tribute to Sancho giant river otter

This video is about Sancho, an orphaned giant river otter. He was only 20 days old when a fisherman in Pantanal Brazil found him. He was rescued and raised by Carolina Vargas a veterinarian and giant otter observer and naturalist Carolina made a very important role in Sancho's life as a sorrugate mother she needs to teach him how to catch his own fish and avoid predator and most of all how to be a wild otter. By the time Sancho was 6 months old he already know how to fish and Carolina started to slowly lessened the bond between her and Sancho.She intended to put a transmitter collar on him, but he left before she could. He was 9 months old, she tried to find him but luck did not come her way. I was very touched by this story.And still thinking "Where is Sancho" I hope that he is safe.

Poor Sancho, he was a cheeky young fellow, his behaviour almost reminded me of a human child at times.

"Raising Sancho" is a brilliant documentary.  Sad, but well worth watching and learning about these wonderful creatures. Donate money or time to help prevent their extinction. Otters rule!

Una preciosa y conmovedora historia, (hace poco la vi en TV). Tambien mi admiración y reconocimiento a Carolina Vargas, por toda la dedicación y amor que entrego a Sancho. Todos quisieramos imaginar que Sancho formo una linda familia, después de vivir su infancia con su madre adoptiva, que le dio tanto amor.

Si alguien conoce un mail de Carolina ojala lo pusiera.
