Octopus Notices Humans, Menacingly Crawls onto the Land - Neatorama

(Video Link)

The octopus crawled out of the sea and deposited a crab in front of the humans. YouTube user tuantube thinks that this was a friendly gesture. It wasn't. Like a cat leaving a dead mouse before you, it's a simple message that expresses "You're next."

Oh I just love cephalopods. They're very smart, you know...

When a cat drops a dead mouse at your feet, it's trying to feed you. It has noticed that you seem totally inept at hunting, like a kitten, and it's trying to help you out.

Please forgive what could be a very dumb question, but I live in the middle of a desert. Is that shiny stuff kelp?

Adorable!

@ KCanathema: Yes it is seaweed and seem to belong to kelp (sorry but i don't ask me for the class or order)

It was a scouting mission. The invasion is coming, mark my words!

Disgusting. Someone should have kicked it back into the water. Humans must not be friends with octopodes.

Awesome! Would've loved to have witnessed that myself. Love octopus!

Neat!

Maybe it was trying to join the Octopi Wall Street crowd.

How long before someone leaves a comment that goes something like "I for one, welcome our new octopus overlords" or some over-used "meme" internet-nerd/geek sh*t like that?

and "octopi Wall Street" joke??? Just as lame. I come here for the neat articles. Not "Dilbert".

Vako is not very fun at parties.

Like they say: If you can't stand the nerd/geek sh*t, stay out of the Neatorama.

But come on, guys, who among you can say that you're not going to start saying, "I came here for x. Not 'Dilbert'" anytime you want to dampen the overall mood? I sure know I will!

I liked the Octopi Wall Street joke.
