A fearless sea otter has a history of misbehavior in its family. Its mother was known for approaching boats and kayaks.

      Other than a whole body of water and years of mischief experience. Are you punching the otter, or is it just its after-image…?

      Came here to say that. Would love to see this on camera. Might watch a movie about it, though I admit it’s unlikely the movie wouldn’t be really stupid and childish.
