In May of 2019 we will know who are the good and bad guys in Asia.
>India, Bangladesh, and the Philippines have submitted proposals to ban all international commercial trade in two species of otter in South and Southeast Asia: The Asian small-clawed otter and the smooth-coated otter. Final decisions on the proposals will be made in May in Colombo, Sri Lanka during the 18th Conference of the Parties (COP18) to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES).

I hope they will publish who votes against this proposal, and thus for the prolonged suffering and endangerment of otters. There can be no peace with them

Draft proposals to transfer small-clawed otter and smooth-coated otter to Appendix I of CITES. Illegal otter trade is hurting otter populations and preventing them from living freely.
Don't keep otters as pets. They belong in the wild.
