This Fisherman Didn't Realize He Was Stealing Sea Lion's Lunch

A fisherman was reeling in his catch on a beach in Australia when a sea lion burst out of the waves, hot on the fish's tail.

Another visitor to Browns Beach in South Australia caught all the action on her camera, which she then posted to the 7 News Adelaide Facebook page.

In the video, the warmly dressed angler is shown working hard to get his catch onto the shore when a large and presumably hungry sea lion bounds after it, shocking all on the beach into fits of laughter.

The sea lion regards the lunch-stealers with mild disdain while they laugh. A woman can be heard remarking "It's so mad!" before the peeved pinniped dives back into the sea.

Hopefully that sea lion knew what 5 things to look for in a fresh fish.
