A few nice animal pound images I found:


Sea Otter

Sea otters are about twice the size of river otters. Both are from the weasel family. However, River otters range from about 6 to 31 pounds, where Sea otters lowest range starts at 30 pounds and they can get as heavy as 100 pounds.

Otters do not contain any blubber, so they rely on their thick fur to keep them warm in the cold oceans.



Captain Crunch

"Captain Crunch was captured from the wild by Tony Hunter, a nuisance alligator trapper for the state of Florida. He was taken from Lake Seminole near Tallahassee, Florida when it was determined by the state he was a danger to humans and their pets. He had actually learned to leave the lake at night and stalk sleeping dogs in the yards of their owners. Alligators are great at adapting to their surroundings!
When captured, Captain Crunch was officially measured at 13'2" long and weighed 782 pounds. Captain Crunch was also tested by Florida State University professor, Dr. Greg Erikson, who was working through National Geographic, for the amount of force of his bite. Out of hundreds of alligators tested, Captain Crunch set the official world record for bite force by an American Alligator at 2,982 pounds. That record still stands today and likely will never be broken."
