We used to liveaboard in the San Juans, WA. and fished, recreationally, for Salmon. A number of times you’d fight a salmon for a while and then the line would pay out radically, then release. Invariably you’d real in a Salmon w/ the belly missing. Then the otter would do the backstroke while he dined.

Thanks. Wow, they’re really strong, too! He dragged that rat around, probably twice his weight, like it weighed nothing at all. Straight up the wall.

You need to get back to your Bible. All this is explained in the book of Genesis.

If they catch the critter my first thought would be to check it for rabies. Ive never heard of a rabid otter before Yep. Otters do get rabies. I remember a few years ago there was an FR thread about a man attacked by a rabid otter.
