An otter is an amphibious weasel. Weasels, like most carnivores, are foul
tasting. Most aquatic predators have a strong fishy taste. So the otter probably
tastes foul and fishy. I can't imagine eating one.

Maybe it is the secret ingredient in sticklepick. That's a FarPoint specialty
isn't it? Fermented spicy fish might hide the taste of otter, while the otter
might add a bit of substance to the brew.

That silly suggestion aside, otters are normally trapped in the winter, like
other mustelids, for their fur which is thick and heavy then.
