Image of Otero de Bodas, not of the place itself.

The municipal district of Otero de Bodas lies within the Sierra de la Culebra, declared a national hunting reserve under Law 2/1973 and a regional reserve since 1996, one of the best places in western Europe to track and observe the Iberian wolf. The designation affects, wholly or in part, twelve municipal districts and 41 population centres in the province of Zamora. Of its area, around 70% is municipally owned, 25% is private, and the rest belongs to public administrations, among them the Junta de Castilla y León.
