An otter at Sea Life Weymouth has found love after a long search!
Badger the otter has been on his own for 10 years.
Keepers just couldn't find him a mate until they found Isa.
She recently joined Badger in his enclosure and keepers say sparks have been flying ever since.
They have been playing together and getting on really well.

The general manager at Sea Life Weymouth, Tasmin Mutton-Mcknight said: "We are delighted to announce we have found a new partner for Badger."
Isa was born in 2020 and like Badger is a Asian short-clawed otter.
The two have been playing together and keepers say that Isa "hasn't left Badger's side" since she arrived.
