Members WinterBear Posted February 3, 2012 Members Report Posted February 3, 2012 Well, for the otter? Otter headdress or dance dragger (often worn with the head peeking over the shoulder so the otter can watch). I've also heard of otter quiver or pipe bag? Make a "grizzly" claw necklace with antler tips and an otter base? http://www.powwows.com/gathering/showthread.php?t=50566 http://www.elkuta.com/Joomla/images/pdf/resources/Otter%20Dragger.pdf http://frenchinwisconsin.yolasite.com/my-blog/grizzly-claw-necklace http://www.etsy.com/listing/72096914/imitation-bear-claw-necklace-in-the http://battlecreekstudio.blogspot.com/2011/10/carved-elk-antler-claw-necklace.html This last link has lots of pictures of otter/grizzly necklaces and pictures of otter "turbans" as well. Some turbans have the tip of the tail completely beaded and worn as a triangular flap to one side of the front of the head. Quote
