There was a robbery caught on camera in Santa Cruz … committed by an otter!<\/p>\n

It was just about the cutest mugging you’ll ever see … The video, posted Tuesday, starts with the otter already on top of the board with the surfer underneath.<\/p>\n

In an attempt to encourage the otter off the board, the surfer flips it, sending the otter back into the water, which you would think would be the end of it … but nope! The otter is persistent.<\/p>\n

The marine mammal hops right back on the board, apparently for good this time, because the little guy looked to be very comfortable as the poor “victim” drifted farther away.<\/p>\n

Oh well … Just another classic case of maritime crime on the wild seas!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Surfer’s Board Snatched Grand Theft Otter!!!
