The first Eurasian Otter Workshop (EOW) consisted in a virtual meeting organized by the IUCN SSC Otter Specialist Group from February 26th to 28th, 2021. The workshop promoted a discussion forum on research advances and conservation priorities for the Eurasian otter (Lutra lutra), the otter species with the widest distribution, to encourage joint research programs and collaborations. The meeting, originally planned to be held in Varazdin, Croatia in 2020, had to be cancelled due to the pandemic.
