Eddie the otter was euthanized Thursday morning at the age of 20 after he suffered age-related decline, according to the zoo’s press release. The Oregon Zoo is mourning the death of one of its most beloved animals: an otter known for both his love of basketball and masturbation. He was considered one of the world’s oldest and most talented sea otters, according to Amy Cutting, who oversees the zoo’s marine life area. But he had other “skills,” according to the Oregonian, which pointed out that Eddie was often seen “self-pleasuring” at the zoo. An Oregon Zoo rep confirmed that interesting part of Eddie’s C.V. to the Oregonian.
