I’m a sucker for violent footage of the natural world and this clip of a sea lion making a meal of a squirrelly octopus is pretty spectacular. The octopus makes a few valiant attempts to get away, but the sea lion will not be denied its seafood snack. The fact that the sea lion managed to so agilely pursue its prey with a camera strapped to its back is also worth noting.
Somewhere in western Minnesota, cephalopod lover PZ Myers sheds a single tear while watching this video.
