Sometimes, we notice a nibble has been taken out of a snack left on the counter, and we wonder what happened. However, the thief is usually long gone, and there’s always a chance the food naturally came with a piece missing. Who is to say that a missing piece can’t just happen to be in the shape of teeth?
Then there are the times when we absolutely know who the thief is. Here are sixty of those times.
These pets have all been caught red-handed.
#1 Not too sneaky
There are thieves that hide. Then, there’s this guy. He just takes what he wants. He doesn’t care who sees.
