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."

My grandfather caught an otter on a trotline once.
He did not try to get the hook out but cut the line and let it go. :<€

No listing for a swarm of otters?
SYFI Movie channel story here somewhere. Teens (girls in small bikinis) get attacked by giant mutated otters. One adult is to dumb to understand what is happening and gets killed eaten. One smart girl with rebel bad attitude boy friend saves the the day despite local sheriff opposition.
I just spent a week on a houseboat on Shasta Lake in July, and I never saw the first otter. Just sayin’.
Was thinking the same. Can’t wait for a future movie called “Attack of the Giant Otter” or “Otter Monster” or perhaps “Otternado”
Do otters have talons?
I recall an episode of croc hunter where Steve Irwin got his butt kicked by a 15lb otter at his zoo. He was scared to death of it, the thing was a vicious blur.
Your movie idea is great. I have a title for the next syfy offering in that vein—’Otterconda vs Ottecroc.’

These kids are lucky they didn't bleed out.
You forget everyone dies except the virgin and the guy with the coolest hair.
I once knew a guy that had a nice house with a pond sort of in the country and loved it until one day he was attacked by a rabid otter. Not long after that he sold the place and moved back into town.
Usually limited to mating season when beeavs feel threatened.
FZ was a friend,
Should be OTTNERNADO, good thought, to others who have posted the girl does not have to be a virgin just the most recent version of something in the LBGTGBandwhatever community the boy friend must still be a rebel like Steve McQueen in the BLOB. The heroine must save her black or Hispanic girlfriend the teen boys get killed eaten except for the McQueen boyfriend.
My mudder was an otter.
“Wuz it dees tree otters?”
“No, it wuz tree udder otters. Dey was odder than deez otters. Dey had udders.”
“allegedly” because we must not prejudice the legal case proceeding against the otters.
Presumed innocent until proven guilty!!
“in California, txrefugee wrote:
The otters were there first. Did they get their permission?”
They were sqotters.
First thing I thought of, too.
I think this happened at Lake Shasta last year. Mating season or something.
