Last month there were reports of people throwing stones at Sammy, according to the Dorset Echo.
The paper reported that police officers had to meet with the RSPCA to ensure his safety. But this hasn’t stopped Sammy being friendly around people.
The animals are usually known for being elusive and shy but Sammy looks more than comfortable as he balances on the board.
