capture and relocate sea otters ... Full CCOR -- (Not Draeger, the other
brand) Dacor Scooters with front mounted cage/netting apparatus. They found
that with CCOR they could approach the very sensitive otters without alarming
them, and with scooters and front-nets they could capture them with ease.

  Sounds like a larger and faster and more powerful and heavier-duty version
of that sort of catcher-submersible is just what some groups of people would
find useful to catch scuba divers who get where they aren't welcome. Add sonar
and a powerful underwater ultrasound gun.
