Otter kills young beavers released at Loch Lomond

The BBC said:
An otter is suspected to have killed two beaver kits released at Loch Lomond last month.

The kits, along with their parents and three siblings, were relocated from Tayside to a nature reserve as part of efforts to boost biodiversity.
The BBC said:
In a blog post about the deaths, the charity said young beavers were vulnerable to falling prey to otters, foxes, pine martens, birds of prey and large pike.
A Scottish Spokesbeaver said:
Screw that, we're staying in Tayside
A Loch Lomond Otter said:
Send more beavers.

We've got otters close to where we live. They killed our friends turkey and will attack cats and small dogs. They catch toads and skin them leaving their heads attached, leaving little toad puppets along the river. Otters are right barstewards, but have great PR.

I believe that otters use the same PR firm as dolphins. Unfortunately the orcas chose unwisely.
