In celebration of World Otter Day on May 27, 2026, the AQUARIUM×ART átoa in Kobe will hold a special three-day event, "Otter Talk Time ~To Know is to Protect~," on May 27, 30, and 31. The event aims to deepen visitors' understanding of Asian small-clawed otters beyond their cute appearance, addressing serious conservation issues like poaching and illegal trade for the pet industry. Limited edition merchandise, including a special "Goshuin" fish stamp and new can badges featuring the aquarium's otters, Ohama and Gengen, will also be available for purchase to support the cause.
