Seems he might be a bit disappointed and not posting much since the state snuffed out his favorite killer hornets.

Watched an otter wrestle a 15ish pound bright salmon out of the river last summer. Got it out 3 or 4 times and the fish would flop back into the river. Pretty dang impressive to watch that otter dive into the river and drag out a fish twice its size. Fish eventually got away but I bet it was pretty torn up.
Came face to face with one in my crawl space. They look particularly large in near darkness, with only 2’ of headroom to work in.
They’d apparently been using the space as their dining room to devour fresh Dungeness they’d caught out front.
It was the not so fresh odor that prompted my inspection when I encountered the beast. Fortunately, neither one of us drew blood… it went one way and I went the other.

A Hanzo otter blade gets the job done, has immense style points and makes brutal work of my enemies, but the Elvish blade that glows “Diablo Blue” in the presence of Otters is really what you want. Great for low light hours when Mama Otter comes to box your ears and packs easier in my watermaster.

You might be thinking of the kid and grandma getting attacked on the Pilchuck float tubing a few summers ago?

People involved in the shellfish industries in California hate the Sea Otters. They are extremely cute and tourists love them. Millions of dollars every year is spent on "protecting" otters, and to hide the fact that they are extremely destructive. Once they move into an area they will eat every Abalone, Sea Urchin, clam etc...If a person gets busted with one abalone he will be harshly punished...but an otter will eat dozens of them every day...until there are no more. But there is big money for "experts" to lie. Unscrupulous biologists will gladly sacrifice the kelp beds to keep their funding.

Sea Otters are cute, but they are nasty little creatures. They will kill a female otter (or a baby seal) and rape the dead body for up to two weeks. They don't tell you that at the Sea World otter exhibit.
I've seen my daughter in law go pulp fiction midevil on a 'possum with a shovel. Then wallop the babies. Farm girls don't mess around when they get by the horse barn.
