Octopus captures eagle that tried to attack it

Fishermen on Canada’s Vancouver Island have filmed the moment they rescued a bald eagle from the grips of an octopus’s tentacles after the bird of prey tried to attack it. The footage shows the fisherman removing the bird from the octopus's tight hold, before they release it back to safety.

I was sure that eagle died after that but the fishermen reported that it first flew to shore and then flew away. It didn't look too good though it was likely tired after battling with the octopus.

We can only assume the eagle was far too delicious to enjoy on camera.

One guy said this is the biggest octopuss in the world... well acctualy the biggest seen on a scan of the ocean was over 30 meters wich is not official but that 30 meters was not even its span just the length of its head and arms, agin this was not an official measurement by scientists or biologists just a scan that showed the creature hanging in the water, so those stories about boats getting pulled down and attacked by sea monsters and the kracken are not just drunken sailor tales
