Seals may look cute and cuddly, but turn your back on one and they'll steal from you the first chance they get. A fisherman learned this lesson the hard way after a gigantic grey seal hobbled out of the ocean and snatched up his catch of the day.

According to the video's YouTube description, a father and son were fishing at Grey Point in Nantucket when the seal emerged from the water and nimbly stole the dad's bluefish while he was attempting to reel it in.

Props to the seal for showing some serious determination. He charges after the fish as the father attempts to wrest it away, and even shouts of protest from onlookers do nothing to dissuade him from a free meal. Sure, some may call this theft, but, the way we look at it, the seal was simply taking back what's rightfully his. Go seal!
