A monstrous crocodile was unsuccessful in its attempt to intimidate a family of feisty otters playing in the waters of the Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve in Singapore.

In this video uploaded to Facebook, the crocodile can be seen approaching the otters. The Facebook caption identifies the crocodile as Tailless, who, according to a local report, is a long-term resident of the reserve.

Despite the crocodile’s lunges at them, the bevy of otters continued to playfully bob about the animal who eventually swam away. Credit: Jeffery Teo via Storyful
