Swimmer Survives Vicious Otter Attack in California Lake

A swimmer in northern California was attacked by otters while swimming in Serene Lakes, leaving him with around 40 puncture wounds. The swimmer, Matt Leffers, described the otters as aggressive and said he feared for his life during the attack. This incident follows another otter attack in the same area earlier in the summer, raising concerns about the safety of the lake. The California Department of Fish and Wildlife confirmed the otter attack and stated that otter attacks on humans are rare but can occur if the otters feel threatened. The department is investigating the situation and plans to develop a strategy to mitigate the issue.
