CNN —An evening of inner tubing turned perilous for three Montana women when they were attacked by an otter.
At least one otter attacked the women, who called 911 when they were able to get out of the water.
Montana FWP has posted signs at various recreational fishing sites advising people of otter activity in the area.
“While attacks from otters are rare, otters can be protective of themselves and their young, especially at close distances,” Montana FWP said.
“If you are attacked by an otter, fight back, get away and out of the water, and seek medical attention,” Montana FWP added.
