The '''Neotropical Otter''' (or '''Neotropical River Otter'''), ''Lontra longicaudis'', is an [[otter]] species found in [[Central America]], [[South America]] and the island of [[Trinidad]].<ref name = IUCN>{{IUCN2008|assessors=Waldemarin, H.F. & Alvares, R.|year=2008|id=12304|title=Lontra longicaudis|downloaded=21 March 2009}} Database entry includes a brief justification of why this species is of data deficient</ref>

It is found in many different [[riverine]] habitats, including deciduous and evergreen forests, savannas, llanos and pantanal. It is possible that this species prefers to live in clear, fast-flowing rivers and streams, and is probably rare in sluggish, silt-laden lowland rivers.
It is a solitary animal and feeds on fish and crustaceans. It is an [[endangered species]], according to [[CITES]] Appendix I.
