. Due to the low production rate of WikiOtters, there are only 58 otters. Currently, there is a spike in inactivity in the species though the population has been growing.

Because they are not opposed to challenging veteran editors, WikiOtters can find themselves surrounded by other editors in a corner. If you see a WikiOtter in a corner for standing up to justice, make sure to stand up for it.

A WikiOtter license is required for legal possession of WikiOtters. One may apply for such a license by filling out a copy of the {{User wikipedia/Otter}} form. A completed form is shown to the left. Recently however, not many would like to apply for ownership, one of the causes of the species becoming extinct.

Because WikiOtters tend to look strikingly similar to other members of the Lutra genus, perhaps the best way to identify a WikiOtter is by looking for the tag shown here. Another tag (image available next to the page name, on the right) is the {{WikiOtter topicon}} tag. This tag is smaller but is somehow easier to spot at a distance.

As of March 2022, there are 58 known specimens of the species, a rise from the 7 in May 2021.^{[citation needed]}
