Otter in the duck pond

[Launchpad]

So a few months ago my father thought we had a nutria in the pond, based on the tell-tale bubbles from swimming underwater. I had never seen it
This morning I saw our bit it seems to be a Texas River otter

I know they are predators but have never dealt with one. The ducks are all large (pekin, cayuga, silver appleyard) but so is the otter...
I put the pekins in their pen and the others in the fenced yard until I can figure out the course of action.
- only seen it today, likely one other time: keep ducks safely locked up and assumes it moves on?
- scare it away, not quite sure how
- relocate it, again, not sure how to catch an otter. Maybe a wildlife rehabber?
- eliminate it, though that's the one option i hope to avoid

Any and all help/experiences/etc is appreciated
