Aggressive sea otter bites California surfer, hijacks surfboard
11 ABC ^ | 10/17/25 | 11 ABC

A surfer at Steamer Lane says a sea otter bit her foot and then climbed onto her board Tuesday evening, holding it hostage for roughly 20 minutes as rescuers rushed in.

Isabella Orduna was paddling out when she felt "a nip" on her foot. She rolled off and turned to see an otter perched on her board.

Orduna says that after biting her, the otter took over her board for at least 20 minutes and, in the moment, she didn't know what to do.
