In order to evaluate predation strategy and variations during an active population dynamic, diet of European otter (Lutra lutra) was studied during a year-round cycle in two different aquatic systems in Auvergne (France). First were tributaries of Allier River in Haute-Loire and second were marshes, creeks, rivers and ponds in Puy-de-Dôme. Preys were identified and quantified (occurrences, abundances and biomasses) from otter spraints sampling. Diet was mainly consisted by little- and medium-sized fish (74% to 89% of consumed biomass, size generally less than 17.5 cm). Dominant prey in otter’s diet were the most numerous species in studied rivers and marshes, which corresponds to the most efficient predation strategy. Crayfish, amphibians, ...
