A little frolic during a hot weekend nearly caused a major water problem in Portland, Ore.

A young man and woman were were found skinny-dipping in a reservoir that is one of Portland’s main water sources.

Ryan Langsdorf, 28 and Ashley Moyer, 23, were found at about 3 a.m. Saturday during a spate of unusually hot weather. They were cited for trespassing.

Fortunately, the two were swimming in a section of the reservoir that is currently not in use.

Had it been in use, water bureau officials say they would have had to dump millions of gallons of water and possibly shut off the reservoir.

Millions of gallons of water were dumped earlier this year when someone put latex paint, a construction cone and hundreds of flyers into the water.

— A couple creatures that normally do hang out in the water took a little weekend excursion of their own.

Two baby river otters are safely in the care of a wildlife rescue group after they traveled through several Petaluma, Calif. neighborhoods, including a stop at a local pub.

Residents began calling the Sonoma County Wildlife Rescue hotline Friday night, reporting sightings of the pair slinking across porches and diving under fences.

The first otter was caught Saturday morning after a homeowner caught the animal sleeping between a garbage can and a flower pot. The second one, however, kept moving through town and was spotted by a man outside Mario & John’s Tavern that night.

“He was afraid he’d sound crazy or we’d think he’d been drinking too much. But he said it hissed at him twice and then ran across the street into some bushes,” said Donnie Figone, co-owner of the tavern.

Someone finally trapped the baby otter at an auto parts store Monday morning and called the rescue group.

Rescuers believe the mother of the 2-month old siblings, each about the size of a shoebox, may have been injured or died. Baby otters cannot survive long without their mother, spurring the weekend search for them.

Officials say a third otter also could be on the loose in town.
