A swimmer in Ude Lake, near Atikin, was attacked by two otters, the Duluth News Tribune said.
Carol Schefers, 38, was swimming in the lake where her family has a cabin and thought at first it was fish biting her, the Duluth News Tribune said.
Schefers' husband pulled her out of the water and brought her to the emergency room, WCCO said.
Schefers is recovering from 18 bites and says the life jacket she was wearing kept her afloat, WCCO said.
