Dr Matthew Evans, an animal communications expert at Stirling University, said the Canadian otters would be at considerable risk because of their unfamiliar "dialects". Dr Evans, a biological scientist, said: "Dialects are common in animal communications. "Because of the differences in the sounds they make, it will be difficult for these Canadian otters to communicate with the native ones.

Excerpt:
Scots otters set to protest over Canadian incomers
STAFF at Scotland?s largest sea-life sanctuary mounted a 24-hour guard over a new pair of Canadian otters yesterday after experts warned that their "foreign accents" could provoke attacks from local rivals.
Wild otters, known to protect their territory viciously, have already been spotted at the national sea-life sanctuary near Oban, since the one-year-old pair were brought in to be attractions at the sanctuary?s new £150,000 "Otter Creek".
Staff believe the local animals are threatened by the strange scents and foreign voices of the larger newcomers, which locals have named Fingal and Sula.
Dr Matthew Evans, an animal communications expert at Stirling University, said the Canadian otters would be at considerable risk because of their unfamiliar "dialects".
Dr Evans, a biological scientist, said: "Dialects are common in animal communications.
"Because of the differences in the sounds they make, it will be difficult for these Canadian otters to communicate with the native ones.
"There is no doubt that dropping two foreign otters in to the territory of wild locals would be incredibly disruptive and lead to the local ones beating the living daylights out of the new otters.
"It is an invasion of their territory that they will not take kindly to."
As well as the round-the clock watch, staff are also considering erecting an electric fence and installing cameras.
The security plans were devised after it became apparent the sanctuary, situated on the banks of Loch Creran, was already within the territory of at least one family of wild otters.
The new otters are both aged around a year and a half and are thought to be brother and sister.
