Octopus Escape!

Please LIKE if you want to see more Octopus video this summer! We caught this Octopus in a shrimp trap here in Alaska. It had crawled in through a 3 inch opening and terrorized our catch of spot prawns, killing and eating several of them, and then, attached itself to the bait jar and unscrewed the lid to open for dessert of prepared shrimp bait pellets! We decided to let this brilliant creature go (option was to eat it! ...yum!) as I respected it’s intelligence and genius. We set it on the deck and let it “escape“ on it’s own... Cool fun with a sea creature! Camera used: Canon Vixia HF M31 a WP-V2 Waterproof Case.
