️The orphaned otter that is now part of the family

The lives of Billy and Susan Mail changed forever when a starving otter cub showed up at their doorstep.

It was 3 March 2021 when Billy noticed the emaciated animal, who he later named Molly, cracking crabs near his house in Shetland.

Billy says nurturing the cub back to health made him rediscover the joy he had lost following the recent death of his parents.

And it inspired wildlife filmmaker Charlie Hamilton-James to turn their unlikely friendship into an award-winning documentary.
