• Graham George Spencer of Singapore was walking with a friend in the Singapore Botanic Gardens on Nov. 30 when a runner dashed right into the path of a group of about 20 otters, causing them to change from "being quiet to going crazy like dogs," Spencer told todayonline.com.
The otters, apparently confused about who was who, attacked Spencer, pushing him to the ground and biting him around his feet and buttocks.
"I was bitten 26 times in 10 seconds," he said. "If it wasn't for my friend, I don't think I'd still be here. I'd be dead."
At a hospital across the street, Spencer was given tetanus shots and antibiotics. [todayonline.com, 12/8/2021]
