They do not inject venom every time, as many other snakes do.

Your otter may get lucky.

i think you should make friends with the water moccasin. Swim around with it. tease it and see what happens.

You live on a lake? Do you know anyone who lives in a pineapple under the sea?

This is undoubtedly the same otter that said: "I will personally kill the Time Child, and eat his entrails on my belly!"
