Any thoughts?

The Herald article mentions that the incident took place "a kilometre from shore, in water two metres deep." So the beaver (?) would not have been cornered in any way, unlike the agressive beaver in Belarus. Also, in the article the victim is quoted as initially thinking that he was being attacked by a "sea otter." Sure, here, on the Right Coast?
