She's beauty, she's grace, she'll steal your surfboard from under your face

She’s otterly amazing.

I’ve been following this saga. It’s… entertaining. Like I get why they need to capture her. But honestly? I’m can’t help but root for her.

Somebody needs to set this to the pink panther theme song.

I'm of the same opinion. It's a shame that she (like her mother before her) can't live in the wild, and I hope they can find a humane home for her in captivity. Meanwhile, I hope she fucks more of our human shit up while she's still free.

Lol, maaan, I posted this story to the upliftingnews community two weeks ago and it got removed for "not being uplifting." What's not uplifting about a cute little otter stealing surfboards?

The inspector Closou’s trying to catch the pink ~~otter~~ sea panther.

Sea otter steals surfboards in shallow seas.

Oh-oh, here she comes
Watch out, boy, she'll steal your board
Oh-oh, here she comes
She's a sea otter

Finally, some quality news!

The boards she steals are real boards, I'm sure.

Local officials call the animal Otter 841.

She may have ate for one, but she surfs for at least a dozen.
