Therefore this research was conducted, to identify the presence and distribution of otters in the HKM area. This research uses the Camera Trap (CT) method and placement is done by looking for signs of presence using the Line Transect method. In this study, 3 individual otters were found, which were identified into 2 different species, namely Aonyx cinereus and Lutra sumatrana.
