This study reexamined 'Dubuc's model for predicting otter occurrence in selected watersheds on MDI'. From Abstract, 'Twenty-six watersheds on Mount Desert Island were surveyed on foot during the winter of 1998 to determine river otter distribution. A new model predicting suitable river otter habitat was created using new data and previous models by Dubuc et al. (1990) and Reebs et al. (1992). This was applied and tested on the known distribution of river otters in the study area.' /STUDY LOCATIONS:/ /MOUNT DESERT ISLAND/
