[Little-clawed otter cafe] A spot where you can meet small-clawed otters in Tokyo!

Pet cafes have become increasingly popular in recent years, and among them, clawless otter cafes have taken the spotlight! However, due to the amendment of the Washington Convention in 2019, it has become more difficult to keep clawless otters as pets.

For those who desperately want to interact with clawless otters, this article introduces spots in Tokyo where you can meet these adorable creatures!

What are Asian Small-clawed Otters?

Asian small-clawed otters are carnivorous mammals belonging to the Mustelidae family (which also includes weasels). Their friendly and energetic nature has made them beloved stars at aquariums worldwide.

Their round, dark eyes and small yet dexterous hands have captured the hearts of many.
