Aggressive Otter
It was unimaginably fast, completely brutal and, for a few awful moments, seemed to be turning deadly. That’s how Jen Royce described a vicious attack by an otter that left her hospitalized.
“As I kept trying to keep my head above water, that’s when I had that, ‘This is how I’m going to die’ moment, and it honestly pissed me off,” she told Cowboy State Daily in a Thursday interview.
“Yes, I was scared, and terrified beyond measure,” she said. “But if you can believe it, I had enough time to think of my three kids. I think as a parent you’d get it.
“I thought about them hearing that their mother died by an otter in a river. Like, really? No way was I going to let that happen to them. So, I fought as long and as hard as I could.”
Otter attacks are extremely rare, but when they do happen, wildlife experts recommend fighting back.…..
