OMG I saw this on WCCO the other night and was all WTF? And here I thought I'd be OK lounging in the lake up north. Now I have to beware of otters.

But SOLDIERS. They've got it worse.

One of my first stories at my first job involved getting shut in a barn stall with a river otter that had been hit by a car and was about to be re-released after rehab. I was perched on top of one of those big, plastic dog carriers helping the rescue folks herd him inside.

I was warned beforehand that they can be mean. Dude, that thing crunched his way through big fish, bones and all. Anything with jaws that powerful is not to be messed with.

Although he was also super cute.

Desert otters are worse than North American breeds, so think of the soldiers the next time an otter tries to attack you.

What the...? Otters are adorable though.

I saw that on the news at the gym and I was LOL. I love the local news. Full of stories like this one.

This is why I only do pools. And only sometimes...you know, because of pool sharks and shit.

Hey they can crack open oyster shells with their toofies and widdle paws You don't mess with otters, man. The Russians nearly wiped 'em out and the otters didn't take kindly to that.
