JACK THE OTTER

Once upon a time Jack, the little otter , who lived in Parrot Park, was very happy eating sardines and marine delights like lobsters

or shrimps.

One day, he was so bored to be in Parrot Park that he decided to swim out. He wanted to discover the sea, he

wanted to know how the wild animals lived together, how they moved or how they swam, but he was anxious to

find his biological parents.

I’m bored.

Three days later, Jack left the zoo. He didn’t care about his keepers. He only wanted to see his parents. One day, he jumped into the

sea to discover a stunning new world. He saw sardines diving in big groups and how big canarian lobsters were… An interesting

ecosystem was in front of him

Everything was perfect and wonderful, as soon as Jack was looking to a holoturia, a sea urchin bit him. His tail had been

infected with sea urchin’s poison, slowly Jack started to fall asleep. His body

fell down softly in the deep sand and his joints were relaxed. He thought that he was going to die. The last thing that he

remembered was a shadow of a huge turtle.

When he woke up, he was surprised , because he had never been in such a beautiful place before. He was in a cave with hundreds of

turtles and he didn’t understand the reason why or how he was inside

He could breathe in that cave, he felt as if he was inside of an air bubble

An old turtle told him:- “Hello my name is Pepe”. “I am who has carried you”. “What’s

your name?”

And Jack replied:- “I’m Jack ,the otter, Mr Pepe”. “ How did you remove the

poison from my body and cure me?”- “Here you are an antidote for all the diseases and infections,

my dear friend Jack”.- “Unbelievable! and I hadn’t any idea there was a magic potion,

which cures all ills”, Said Jack with a happy tone. - “My dear Jack !, you have to learn many things about marine

animals, because I suppose that you are not from here, aren’t you?”

- “ You are right!. I’m from a zoo, called Parrot Park. Have you heard about it?”

- “No, I haven’t”

A few minutes later ,Jack and Pepe finished chattering. Jack asked the old turtle if he had ever seen other otters like

him.The turtle said that he had seen some otters, which were living in

his cave for a long time. Jack was very happy to hear his news and asked Pepe if he knew

where they had gone. Pepe told him they went to a safe place where humans couldn’t

fish them , far away Mackenzie river. Jack hurried to jump into the sea and swam as fast as he could towards Mackenzie river, without listening to his friend that the

otters had been hunted by the humans of the zoo.

As soon as Jack reached the place, he was so tired and his fur was so badly damaged because of sea salt that he fell asleep in a

riverbank.

I’m tir

ed.

When he woke up, he saw a couple of otters and their daughter staring at him.

Jack asked for their names and the male otter said:- “I’m Antonio and these are my wife Ana and our daughter

Marianne”. - “My name is Jack”.

The otter family wanted to know if he had been born in Parrot Park. As Jack nodded his head , Antonio started to cry

desperately. Marianne explained to him that her parents had been hunted by

a couple of humans who worked in Parrot Park. Antonio’s family followed the humans who were sailing on a boat

towards Parrot Park. They didn’t know if they were alive.Jack told them not to worry about her parents, because he had

seen them performing an aquatic show

Jack was about to be a new member of the otter family, because he got married to their daughter

and this original tale is over
