One of the bad parts of the otters is they don't even eat all of the fish they catch. They take a bite out and leave them on the bank. Kill just to kill.

Copper was being a bit stubborn about going next door to visit the ladies! Patience paid off this time! He just wasn’t aware of what was in store for him! 😂 Hope the spray foam keeps your hunting shack cooler for you and possibly even warmer when it gets cooler. I agree with you about the otters. They will definitely clean out the creek of the crawdads and little fish and then will head to the pond when that supply runs out. They are definitely something that needs to be dealt with soon. Great video today. Thanks for sharing your farm life with us.💕

Otters are an indication of how healthy your eco system is. They are very territorial so you will not be over run by them. I take them as a good sign as the feeding is plentiful and also take on small snakes.

Mr Daniel,I'd do whatever it takes to remove the otters because you know as well as anyone how bad they are for the fish,otters got in my brothers pond and killed but didn't eat probably 10 catfish that weighed over 30 lbs,just took bites out of them and left them to rot,plus a few bass that weighed over 12 lbs,needless to say they were dealt with accordingly,I wouldn't care what anyone thinks about how you decide to deal with the otters either,great video,keep doing what you're doing and may the Lord continue to bless you and your family.

Wow Daniel your helpless against the Otters using traps, etc, as you have dogs and other animals, even deer roaming the creek plus the pond area. I used spring traps for otters, and they worked awesome, but placing them where you must is dangerous to your pets and deer population. Take them out the fast way, BOOM! They will empty your creek and pond in just a few weeks. They don't hibernate, so that's not helpful. Blessings to you all!
