Did you know British Columbia has the largest species of octopus in the world? The Giant Pacific Octopus is the largest of its kind in the world. So how many legs do an octopus have? In this case about 6! Two of this dudes legs were partly missing. Maybe another octo, maybe a sea lion tried to have a bite... we'll never know.
What we do know is that these amazing creatures, filmed here at Madrona Point near Nanaimo, BC, are beautiful animals, graceful, amazing swimmers and sometimes very curious about us clumsy humans! Bonus info: This clip was all filmed on an iPhone! You can now take your iPhone underwater using one of these. |
