Two teens were allegedly attacked by a swarm of otters while enjoying a summer swim in California's Shasta Lake last weekend.
Chris Whitney, 13, told local ABC News affiliate KRCR-TV that three otters attacked him and his buddy Jacob Savage, 14, in the lake.
"They just kept getting at our legs and our feet," Chris said. "There was one that kept attacking us no matter what we did."

I don’t want to say its climate change, but...

If they took my animal self defense class, they would have been able to defend themselves. Green belt covers specifically how to fight aquatic mammals.

Two teens were allegedly attacked by a swarm of otters 'Allegedly'. LMAO! Don't want to prejudice the jury when the otters are brought in, I guess. The jury, presumably also composed of otters, might have been exposed to the coverage.

The otters were there first. Did they get their permission?
