Seems this otter, an otherwise aquatic enabled big South Florida RAT, decided to attack a teenager outside his parents home.
http://www.theblaze.com/stories/caught-on-video-wild-otter-attacks-third-person-in-boca-raton/ WESTERN BOCA RATON, Fla. – A third person has been the victim of an otter attack in suburban Boca Raton.
William Gibbons was by himself when the incident took place outside his parents’ home near Yamato Road and 441. “I was locked out of the house,” explains Gibbons, “I went around to the backyard and saw an otter laying in the grass. I began observing the otter, and it came out of the water and bit me Gibbons had his camera phone with him during the incident and caught the attack on tape.
Laurie Gibbons, William's mother, says she's never seen an otter in the lake behind their house before and didn't think anything like this could ever happen. Gibbons was taken to the hospital and received a number of precautionary shots in case the otter was infected with rabies.

AHH, the notorious Tasmanian Devil, For some reason I thought the evil beastie looked more like this
On the serious side I have to agree with TAB on this, in fact, I would be more surprised if it were not rabid.
Well tom he does normally but when pushed, poke or provoked the other side of me comes out LOL There is another picture around that has 2 or three shells in the air at the same time, cant seem to find it now, from memory I was shooting from the hip. Maybe this is the sort of thing the boy who screams like a girl could of used against that ferocious head warmer. hehe

Took me about 40 pages of your back posts to find that pic ;D And yes, I think a nice lever gun would have chilled the little SOB quite nicely ;D But then to quote some other guy, I like guns ;D
