California wildlife officials are seeking to stop a Sea otter from stealing surfboards.
According to the Washington Examiner, a female Sea otter has been caught on camera seizing the property directly from surfers.
This was displayed in a tweet by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) which shared a photo of the furry culprit.
They wrote they “are aware of a 5-year-old female southern Sea otter exhibiting concerning and unusual behaviors in Santa Cruz, California, including repeatedly approaching surfers & kayakers recreating in the area.”
The Smithsonian Magazine reported on the situation and even shared an image of the Sea otter appearing to surf on the stolen property. Although recent encounters are making waves, the 5-year-old thief has been caught getting close to humans for years.
