Otter dicks are shrinking thanks to pollution, and you should definitely freak out, because the trend might affect humans, too.
The connection requires further investigation, but the study notes
that humans and animals are exposed to many of the same chemicals on a
daily basis. According to Dr. Eleanor Kean, the otter is a very good
indicator of the health of the environment, and in the 1970s, the
presence of pollutants caused a giant crash in the aquatic animal’s
population and the size of their genitalia!.
Many of these chemicals have been banned, but others still exist and aren’t monitored……………………..!

A new study from the Cardiff University Otter Project
and the Chemicals, Health, and Environmental Monitoring Trust (CHEM)
found that otter penis bones are getting smaller. What researchers
haven’t yet determined is if endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are
to blame. Otters have different reproductive physiognomy, but EDCs can
also lead to human babies with undescended testicles, sex organ
deformities and low sperm count.
