The online auctions for Dudley Zoo's art trail otter statues are now live, as they aim to raise funds for two otter charities.

All eight colourful Asiatic short-clawed otter sculptures, which have been on show around the zoo sites and local attractions over the last few months are being auctioned off in aid of The UK Wild Otter Trust and The Himalayan Otter Network.

The otters, which have been decorated by talented local artists, have a minimum reserve of £100 each.

The auctions will close at 8pm on Friday 18 October with collection from Dudley Zoo from Sunday 20 October, when a farewell event will be held.
