## Caption

Here's a video you otter see: Trail cams in an Alaskan meadow caught a lynx diving into an "otter outhouse," where river otters go pee, for a roll in the stink.

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service biologists think the lynx could be using the urine as scent camouflage *or* as a way to communicate with other nearby wild cats.

Either way, it's a smelly world out there. #WorldOtterDay

P.S. If you love otters like we do, head over to our bio to learn about the work we're doing to have sea otters reintroduced to a large stretch of the West Coast.
