Answer:
The statement "Water must be kept on the move and made to do things; when static it is wasted and provoking" implies that water should be utilized in some way instead of being still or stagnant. In the case of Mijbil, the otter, he was kept in a small, stagnant pool, which was not an ideal environment for him. Therefore, this statement is relevant to Mijbil's situation as he needed a more active and dynamic environment, which he ultimately received when he was moved to a larger, more natural habitat.
