An online user on Sunday (Feb 12) required to social networks to share an extremely well-taken video that captured a group of otters surrounding a water screen lizard. “This video was taken on 11th Jan 2023 morning,” the post read. “There were two water monitors at first, but one of them swam off to a distance. This water monitor stayed put and the otters circled it for a while, swam off to find food or join the bigger group of otters, and then came back again. They eventually left it alone.”
Many online users left messages of shared fascination over the animal sighting. “That tail sweep is no joking matter,” composed one.
“Otters (are) like gangsters, cowards against someone who stands up for themself,” composed another. Still, a 3rd said, “I can imagine the monitor lizard going, ‘TSK!’ the Singaporean way, as it swiped its tail at the otters.”
A 4th commented, “This is (the) natural behaviour of otters. Proof that (they are) an invasive species and monitor lizards are part of their food chain.” To this, another social networks user reacted, “Both are native animals. Otters don’t eat monitor lizards. But monitor lizards may attack otter pups.”
Other netizens, nevertheless, were interested by the cameraman’s abilities and talked about the netizen on producing such a constant video.
