Best Answer

otters don't usually swim in waters with sharks, but if a shark were to see an otter then it would go up and see if it's food, just like it would for a seal or any other swimming fish-like creature. The shark would definitely come up to the otter if the otter was injured and bleeding, since sharks can smell blood from a very far distance away. So yes, if an otter were to encounter a shark (mostly only a great white), it has a good chance of becoming the shark's next meal!

Do sharks eat Sea Otters?

Yes a sea otter will eat a shark more often than a shark will eat it. Since otters have sharp teeth they can turn around while being chase by a shark and eat it. Otters and whales will eat sharks and they eat plants and algae which make them omnivores. That is why they are the top predators in the ocean food chain.
