That is extremely unusual. If they catch the critter my first thought would be to check it for rabies. I’ve never heard of a rabid otter before but then I never heard of a rabid caribou until one was killed and diagnosed on Alaska’s North Slope many years ago when I worked there.

Experiences, like this, have a way of knawing at you for a long time...

Reminds me of the cover of one of those MEN’S MAGAZINES back in the 1950s and 60s where a man is fighting off animals.

Luckily, it wasn’t a giant otter. Up to 8 feet and 75 pounds.

The issue isn't whether the otter broke a few rules, or took a few liberties with his aquatic guests (he did), but if we blame the otter, shouldn't we blame the entire animal kingdom? And if we do, isn't this an indictment of all of God's creation? Now, I'll put it to you: you can say what you want about the otter, but I'm not going to sit here and let you badmouth God!

I remember seeing a program about the Amazon and it was mentioned that the giant river otters were very dangerous.

Wow. Can otters be rabid? I wonder if they’re going to test this one (assuming they caught it — that might be a big assumption).
