No, they are not. These otters are native to Malaysia. They only stay in rivers that are clean. Having these otters move to the Melaka river is a good sign the river is getting better.
i went to look it up, apparently we should have 4 native species, though the side of Malaysia where Melaka is, it should be the smooth-coated ones like these bbs

Native to Malaysia doesn’t mean they’re native to that region no?
But if they’re actually native to the Melaka river, and are now returning it’s a whole different story however.
