Three women were injured, with one sent to the hospital, after being attacked by an otter while floating in inner tubes along a popular stretch of water. Otter attacks are rare, and authorities have posted signs and alerts about otter activity in the area.
“It’s just not something you run into very often,” Everett said. “Bears do it, moose too and occasionally a deer, but otters? That’s not normal.”Staff with Montana’s Fish, Wildlife and Parks have since posted signs at fishing sites around the area and alerts about otter activity. “No further management action is planned at this time,” the department said.Article content
A 5-year-old sea otter in Santa Cruz — known as Otter 841 — continues to evade capture after weeks of approaching kayakers and biting surfboards. Wildlife experts have been unable to determine whether Otter 841’s aggressive behaviour was prompted by something like hormonal changes or becoming accustomed to being fed by humans.
Meanwhile, reports of orcas sinking boats and damaging sea crafts have ballooned, with more than 500 known incidents in the past several years. Researchers say the behaviour is probably orcas, particularly juveniles, trying to have fun.
