A wildlife camera positioned along the Bronx River has yielded an extraordinary discovery: photographic evidence of a river otter on zoo grounds, marking the species’ return to the waterway after more than a century of absence. Researcher RJ Hawkins confirmed the sighting, which represents a significant milestone for the region’s ecological recovery.
The camera-trap documentation provides rare visual confirmation of a mammal species that vanished from the Bronx River during the early 1900s. Hawkins’ research underscores the growing presence of wildlife in urban waterways and suggests improving environmental conditions in the area.
