An ordinary day on the seaside in Karwia, Poland took a turn toward the mythological with the dramatic appearance of a dark boar from the sea foam. (sl YouTube)

Another perfectly good day at the beach ruined by one of those pesky sea boars.

I've never seen a boar so out of bubblegum.

Excellent portable beach wall solution for high-wind sunbathing.

That's funny- I though you only saw tidal boars in rivers.

...and the Red Bull Black Boar rode close behind them.

did anybody catch it? you can usually breed at least one good dynastic monarchy out of a beast that emerges parthenogenetically from a body of water

Turn it into barbecue - it's pre-brined!

Glad to hear that squirrel finally made it back to land, albeit sea changed.

It's a Pokemon called Seaboarg.

I knew I should have shaved my back before going to the beach.

I love how quickly the mild mannered sunbathers revert to cavemen. "Ugg big tusk pig, GRAB STICKS!"

I'll take a wild guess that if that fence was not there the boar would have kept running instead of bowling for tourists.

Which one of the sunbathers called him Mr. Pig?

Seasteading is getting out of hand.

I like to imagine the dude who got sent ass-over-tea-kettle was all "I've spent three hours on this sandcastle, come at me, boar!"

:( That boar was in distress -- why didn't anyone rip a hole in that fence lining the sand so it could escape?

Well it's not like it was a house elf...

Well, they're definitely no good for protection from Sea Boars.

Michael: "Get rid of the Sea Boar."
