Workers at a fish farm in Canada captured shocking video of a bald eagle struggling with an octopus before they rescued the bird from the mollusk's clutches.
Employees at Mowi West Canada's Mahatta West farm in Quatsino posted the clip on their Facebook page.Our staff at our Mahatta West farm in Quatsino rescued an eagle that had bitten off more than it could chew when it tried to catch an octopus. They are used to seeing the wonders of nature around them on a regular basis, but they knew that this was a once in a lifetime experience. The octopus swam away unharmed and the eagle recovered on a branch for around 10 minutes before it flew away.
The manager of the Mahatta West farm, John Ilett, told the outlet he quickly realized that the conflict would be fatal for the great bird and realized that they needed to break it up before it was killed. "When you're in the moment, it was heart-wrenching," Ilett told CTV."I couldn't let an animal die in front of me."He grabbed a pike pole, a long rod with a hook at the end, and used it to pull the struggling animals aboard their boat. Once there, they extricated the bird and threw the octopus back into the water.
