Nice capture of the snarling expression. Excellent detail and I like the way he stands out from the grass.

I appreciate the open mouth pose, the balanced curves of the whiskers, and catchlight reflections in both eyes.

What a cool expression Geoff; he does not seem to be too happy with your presence The detail is excellent and the DOF pleasing. Personally I would crop a bit off the left, maybe to a 4:3 ratio, to get the head out of center.

Fantastic Job This is not your cuddly otter. I very much like this photo but I think I would like to see more it's habitat and more full body - This is just me I love the detail from the wet fur to the sharpness of the mouth Cheers

As stated by everyone the expression is fantastic, with that said I would have like to see more space on top or probably more of habitat.
I also see a bit of yellowness in the frame (not exactly yellow cast) but reducing that by a bit would certainly make it more natural.
