There was only enough flashing. In California, a otter that stores the boards in surfer, effectively avoided catching

To catch the animal, the local authorities attracted divers, non -helicopters and even helicopters. However, all the attempts were in vain-the otter still wields in the waters near Santa Krus. The navigation of the nickname "841" lives in the waters near Santa Krus (California, USA) and terrorizes local surfer. An interesting animal has a dangerous habit of stealing boards for surfing, which is not too much liked by local holidaymakers and power, Futurism writes.

It should be noted that this is not the first year when the inquisitive otter is trying to "communicate with surfers", but this year only this year the authorities finally decided to somehow influence its behavior. As a result, Aquarium Monterey-Bay staff, the Department of Fish and the Wildlife of California, as well as the protection of fisheries and wildlife of the United States, promised to catch and relocate from her home.

Interestingly, the animals have attracted divers, helicopters and non -tedies to catch the animal, but every 841 it is possible to escape from the pursuers. It is known that on Saturday, researchers used a mesh 182 meters long and tried 841 to swim in it, using her favorite surfboards as a bait.

Unfortunately, this did not work, and therefore rescuers on boats and helicopters had to give the Opees calm and try again in another time. It is also known that the researchers used as a bait for the surfer, followed by the diver. As the animal jumped on the board, the diver began to slowly pull it to the rescuers. However, as in the previous cases, 841 fell as soon as she came too close to the boat, where she was already waiting for the caretakers.

US Fisheries and Wild Protection Service reports that the otter can actually take days or even weeks, taking into account logistics, animal behavior, changing environmental conditions, such as water transparency. Researchers still do not understand what caused such a strange pattern behavior, but it is suggested that the female may be pregnant, and therefore prone to hormonal bursts that cause her "aggressive behavior" of surfer.

It should be noted that all this otter detention operation forced many to think about whether it was worth it. In addition, local agencies, like researchers, do not want to harm 841, and some fear that the "bait" tactics can actually provoke her behavior. However, let the local authorities do not intend to soften about its decision - it still believes that the otter must be caught and relocated.
