Why? Well for years there have been images circulating the internet noting how similar Benedict and otters look if you put them side by side.
Starting with this angry otter.
Then whatever this otter is doing.
Followed by these wonderful otters.
And then this otter and his teddy friend.
Let's take another look at this photo.
We must all strive to be this happy.
Benedict then attacked the bear.
And punched it in the face. A lot.
