Otter Lake is a lake in geographic Foley Township in the municipality of Seguin, Parry Sound District in Central Ontario, Canada.〔 Otter Lake was originally named 'Nigge-Cu-Bing' (Lake of Many Otters) by the original First Nations inhabitants.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= About The Area )〕 There are several segments to the lake. The "Long Arm" is a long, narrow portion which goes to the east. The "Little Long Arm" protrudes to the west. The "Little Otter" part is to the north, separated from the rest of the lake by the Otter Lake Narrows.〔 The unincorporated places and railway points of Otter Lake〔 (place)〕 and Holmur are at the narrows and on the north side of the lake respectively. The water level is controlled by a dam at the outflow to the Boyne River at the Little Otter portion of the lake.〔 There are over 400 cottages on the lake.〔 The Canadian Pacific Railway and Canadian National Railway main lines both pass the lake, the former at Otter Lake Narrows and the latter on the north shore of the lake.〔〔 In the summer of 2012, intrepid explorers of the northwest portion of Otter Lake discovered Turd Island. Turd Island is a 450 square foot space of land, composed primarily of rock, approximately 800 feet offshore. The island is host to turtles, snakes and most prominently, turds. As of August 2015, Turd Island remains a thriving ecosystem, with observed fossilized specimens of pork rib and breakfast sandwich based remnants. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Otter Lake (Seguin, Parry Sound District, Ontario)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
