[Video, El Comercio] Domingo Pianezzi has spent weeks teaching his pet alpaca, Pisco, to ride the waves off the shores of Peru. Pianezzi, who also teaches dogs, cats, and other animals including a hamster to surf, was inspired by seeing kangaroos and koalas surf in Australia, he told Peruvian newspaper El Comercio. Pisco doesn’t appear to have mastered the big waves yet, however. As for learning to hang ten, he has only four toes, which might make it a tricky maneuver.
