A rare otter sighting has been recorded in east London’s financial hub Canary Wharf.

The reclusive creature was spotted on a dock by a security camera owned by Hannah Green and Tom Hill, who live on a boat in the area.

Elliot Newton, from rewilding organisation Citizen Zoo, said it was “absolutely fantastic” to see the otter in such a “highly urbanised” part of the capital.

“This is a wonderful reflection of the recovery otters have experienced in recent decades, having faced near extinction in the mid-20th Century,” he said.
