Mom, young son run from crazed otter who nearly drowned boy at Washington state marina, startling new footage shows

A crazed otter is seen menacing a family at a Washington state marina moments after it nearly drowned a boy it dragged off a dock, a shocking new video revealed.

The footage was taken last month, just after the twisted critter targeted a mom and her young son, according to KIRO 7 News in Seattle.

The youngster narrowly survived being dragged underwater by the rampaging river otter — which also attacked the boy’s horrified mom during a morning walk, authorities said.

The youngster was with his mother on a dock at Bremerton Marina in Kitsap County the morning of Sept. 12 when the otter pounced, according to the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife.

None of the videos that KIRO 7 received from the Port of Bremerton show the actual attack happening, but in one clip, the terrified mom and son can be seen running down the dock — with the otter in hot pursuit moments later.

The group appeared to calm down before leaving the area, the clip showed.

Once they get up the exit ramps, the brazen otter hops back on the dock.

Washington Department of Fish & Wildlife officials said that in most cases, otters tend to shy away from people, KIRO 7 reported.

The boy — who has not been identified publicly — was taken to the hospital to be treated for bites and scratches.

Wildlife officials said they trapped and killed an otter in the area and were testing it for rabies.

The stunning marina attack came just days after a woman in Malaysia was left bloody and crying after she was mauled by eight otters during a jog.
