Describing the encounter as “devastating”, Charlie shared that the family of six to seven otters devoured at least two fish.
“They came as one family to the condo compound and swam from pool to pool. They then (proceeded) to the condominium fish pond and attacked two fish,” the student recounted.
The fish killed were identified as amur catfishes, a species commonly found in East Asia.

Upon witnessing the scene, Charlie sought assistance from the condo security guards to chase the otters away.
On several occasions, otters have been spotted in residential premises in Singapore. In many of these cases, the otters feasted on live fish that were left unsupervised.
