Ecologically, the conservation status of Southern River Otter is officially designated as Endangered. Current field registries estimate a global population composed of an unquantified number of individuals, making habitat preservation critical to maintaining their wild populations.

It is typically endemic to forest, wetland, freshwater, ocean, showing great physiological synergy with its surroundings. In terms of dietary preferences, it relies primarily on a diet of medium-sized mammals, ground birds, and occasional scavenged meat. It exhibits specialized adaptations centered around a nocturnal and crepuscular activity pattern, optimizing its energy conservation and interactions within its native ecosystem. The species has a typical natural lifespan of approximately 12 years, allowing it to adapt and mature through structured generational cycles.
