Trending: Curious, surfboard-biting otter avoids capture

LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) – The California Department of Fish and Wildlife says it has a pesky otter problem.

Officials are getting reports of ‘Otter 841’ approaching humans and biting surfboards.

Divers have been attempting to capture her since June 7.

A representative from the department says that’s the only way to make sure encounters don’t escalate.

When caught, they said she will be evaluated and then sent to a zoo or aquarium.

Otter 841’s mother was captured years ago after she also approached humans.
