- Description:In a mesmerizing underwater encounter captured by @california.shelling on January 10, 2024, off the coast of California, USA, an initially apprehensive octopus in a concealed cave quickly became fast friends with the explorer. The video showcases the cephalopod cautiously expelling water in response to the observer's presence, only to warm up after a few treats of clams and mussels. As trust developed, the octopus, affectionately named Octavius by the explorer, took a mussel directly from her hand and even attempted to gently pull her towards the cozy hideaway.
